How the indie games directory works

Every game here was submitted by its developer, not scraped from a store front. Each listing gets its own page with the trailer, screenshots, platforms, development stage and links to Steam, itch.io, Google Play, the App Store or the studio website, and players can vote for it once per cooldown period.

Votes decide the order of this directory and of every engine and platform page, so a small game with an engaged community can sit above a bigger one. Sponsored placements exist, but they are always labelled and never add votes. The full rules are in our ranking methodology.

The directory lives next to Mutop100's private server rankings, which means the people browsing it already play online games, join Discord communities and vote for the projects they like. That is exactly the audience indie multiplayer games, co-op projects and small-studio MMORPGs need.

How to judge an indie game before you play

Indie games range from weekend game-jam prototypes to polished commercial releases. Five quick checks tell you which one you are looking at:

  • Watch the trailer first. Real gameplay footage beats logos and cinematics. If the trailer only shows menus or concept art, the game is probably very early.
  • Read the development stage. Prototype, demo, playtest, Early Access and released mean very different things for content, bugs and save files. The table below explains each one.
  • Match platforms and player mode. Check that the game runs where you play (Windows, Steam Deck, Android, browser) and whether it is single-player, co-op or PvP.
  • Open the official store page. Steam, itch.io and the mobile stores show reviews, update history and system requirements. Only use the links on the game page or the developer's own site.
  • Check the community. An active Discord, recent updates and answered questions are the best sign that a small team will keep supporting the game.

Development stages explained

StageWhat it means for players
PrototypeA playable experiment. Expect rough edges, placeholder art and big changes.
In developmentAnnounced and being built. Follow or wishlist it to hear about demos and playtests.
Demo availableA free slice of the game, often released for events such as Steam Next Fest. The best way to try before you buy.
Playtest openThe developer is collecting feedback, sometimes through Steam's Playtest feature or a Discord sign-up. Progress may be wiped.
Alpha / BetaAlpha usually means features are still being added; beta means the focus has moved to polish, balance and bugs.
Early AccessSold while still in development. Read the roadmap and the update history before you buy.
ReleasedVersion 1.0 is out. Later updates add fixes, content or expansions.

The engines behind famous indie games

Players often ask which engine a game uses. The honest answer is that no engine makes a game a hit: scope, art direction and a clear hook do. These well-known indie games show how wide the range is:

GameDeveloperEngine or framework

UndertaleToby FoxGameMaker

For developers: put your game in front of players

Listing a game is free and takes a few minutes. You get an indexable game page with your trailer, screenshots and store buttons, placement in this directory and on the matching engine and platform pages, a vote button with a live rank badge for your website and devlogs, and a dashboard with views, link clicks and votes.

It works for every stage: list a prototype to find playtesters, update the stage when your demo or Early Access goes live, and switch to Released on launch day. Read how to promote your indie game for a full launch checklist, or see everything a listing includes on the promote your indie game page.

Perguntas frequentes do diretório de jogos indie

What counts as an indie game on Mutop100?

A game made by an independent developer or small studio, without a large publisher deciding what gets made. Solo projects, small teams and self-published games all qualify, whether they are free, paid, in Early Access or still a prototype.

Is listing an indie game free?

Yes. Creating a game page, appearing in the directory and on engine and platform pages, and collecting votes are free. Optional paid placements such as featured listings and banners are clearly labelled and never change vote counts.

How are indie games ranked?

By player votes collected this month, under the same CAPTCHA and cooldown rules as every Mutop100 ranking. Labelled sponsored positions appear first; everything else is ordered by votes, then by listing completeness and age.

Can I list a game that is not released yet?

Yes. Choose the honest development stage (prototype, in development, demo, playtest, alpha, beta or Early Access) and either a planned release date or TBA. Update the stage as the game progresses so players know what to expect.

Which game engines are supported?

All of them. Unity, Godot, Unreal Engine, GameMaker and RPG Maker have dedicated pages, and listings can also use Defold, Bevy, Construct, Cocos Creator, MonoGame or FNA, Love2D, Phaser, a custom engine or any other tool.

Do game pages link to Steam, itch.io and the mobile stores?

Yes. Developers add links to Steam, itch.io, Google Play, the App Store, the Epic Games Store, their website and a press kit, and the game page shows them as buttons. As with all user-submitted links, they are marked nofollow; the value is the players who click through and a page that can rank for your game's name.
