What are some noteworthy games that aren't available through traditional/common means?
I'm interested in hearing about games that exist off the main map of gaming: games that I can't buy from any of the common storefronts and games that aren't easily playable through an emulator....
I'm interested in hearing about games that exist off the main map of gaming: games that I can't buy from any of the common storefronts and games that aren't easily playable through an emulator.
Examples of things I'm interested in hearing about:
- Long-forgotten abandonware
- Homebrew games for consoles
- Romhacks
- Legally dubious fan-games
- Total conversion mods
- ARGs
- Web games (not ones on sites like Kongregate/GameJolt though)
- Independently distributed games (that you can't get through, say, itch.io)
- Games for systems that aren't currently emulatable
- Games that have been removed from distribution
- Games with servers or content that are no longer operational
- Anything else you think fits the question, really
Tell me about the game(s) you know of and what makes them noteworthy.

Everyone always refers to the coming of Eurogames a long time back, but I'm wondering about modern games. Where have they come? Where will they go? I'd say the art has gotten better, more eye-catching, but I'm more ambivalent about very recent (last five years) game mechanics.

Found this on twitter, user TychoBolt compiled this list. There's a lot of information on many topics, as well as a ton of links to tools that aid in level design, narrative and more.
He also compiled this 122-paged guide on level design; full of tips and tricks for designing levels. I've looked through it for a bit and found quite a lot of interesting information, so I'd reckon this is a valuable asset to anyone developing/designing games.
