I just played two indie games I picked up from the www.tigsource.com webpage (it's a veritable goldmine of indie game info and demos. Make sure to check it out).
Two interesting games worth pointing out.
Lovecraft's commonplace book-inspired typing game. It's basically a typing game where you need to type up words in appropriate locations as the list comes floating down from deep within your psyche (you are supposed to transcribe them using your typewriter, and you'll be paid by each coherent ideas you can piece together). A little rough around the edges, but it might really be something if the author can take more time to flesh out the feature set.
Knytt stories. At surface it's a simple enough platformer, that doesn't eat up processor cycles or memory so it can be played while my computer's busy compiling through large piles of data depo. Quite possibly the best indie game I've ever played, right next to Aquarion (which you should also try if you haven't already).
Both Knytt Stories and the Clatter of Keys are only available for Windows platform. Aquarion recently had a Mac release from Aspyr games. Makes me a bit glad that I didn't pick up that MacBook when I had the chance.
