LONG LIVE THE AXE, yet another owch game, is a strange action platformer with quirky visuals and gameplay. Weapons are extremely fragile, making things very changeable and tense. Free, but you can pay more (discounted) for a prototype.

gloom reducer, one more owch game, is a very weird action-adventure. Very reminiscent of the original Zelda for the NES, but surreal and cryptic, plus you spend a significant portion of the game completely defenseless.

Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk is a strange, very short, horror visual novel about the challenges of the ordinary when struggling with mental illness. Weird, unsettling, sad, somewhat humorous, and extremely meta. Cheap, not on sale, but...

The Princess of the Flower Kingdom has vanished! She was taken by the Ghulibas of the north, and it is up to brave Zee Tee to rescue her. On his quest, he - and you - will discover the hidden lands behind the peaceful kingdom, and come face to face with secrets that will set you on edge!
Kaze and the Wild Masks is a fantastic, somewhat-retro platformer. While the influence of Donkey Kong Country is obvious, Kaze still manages to be very original, fun, and just gorgeous.

Steamroll is a creative, mini-golf-inspired puzzle adventure. Exploration, danger, and different tools add interesting depth to a classic game genre. And the steampunk aesthetic and humor are nice touches.
