I went for Stardew. It's fans aren't the loudest but it's got a huge playrate and a lot of people like it.

Cuphead.

Out of all these games though, Binding of Isaac is my favorite.

gonna say it's a game with a strong presence on a Nintendo platform (Hollow Knight, Shovel Knight) or Undertale.

If I pick one third of the field I can't be wrong

Hollow Knight or Undertale I think. Undertale has a lot of ardent fans and recency advantage via Deltarune 2 and HK is super beloved and has amazing pic factor. Feel those are big strengths to have here.

HK or Stardew are my picks, though I can see arguments for most of the games on this poll. Only games I'm convinced it's not are sitting at 0%.

Agreed. The miserable numbers Sans put up against Pac-Man are especially discouraging too. Undertale is as character-based as it gets, so if Sans is turbofodder without rallies, I can't imagine the game itself fares better.

I would guess stardew valley, but it's hard to know.

I'd vote for hollow knight in the actual poll

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Blows me away that Terraria has more players than Stardew. I thought that game had totally fallen off the map.

Good question because I want to say Cuphead but Stardew is incredibly popular.

If Undertale holds up at all, it should be that... otherwise my instinct is Cuphead or Meat Boy maybe.

it got beat super hard by Cuphead in a GOTY poll here

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6951-best-of-2017-indies

those sorts of polls never translate perfectly to contest results, but I think its pretty unlikely that Hollow Knight would be stronger than Cuphead now.

It was before it came out on Switch though (well, the same could be said about Cuphead too, but I still believe)

I actually am wondering that too because it was insanely popular when it first came out.

I don't know how anyone can say Undertale. Sans got crushed by Pac Man of all people. The game is forever doomed to anti-voting.
