I read about "Untitled Story" on JayIsGames.com, which gave it a glowing review.  It's really charming and immediately reminds you of the terrific Knytt Stories and Within a Dark Forest series (by a different author) that we have posted about before.

The game was written by Matt Thorson (donations accepted on his site), using the "Game Maker" software  tool - one of the cheapest and easiest-to-learn game making engines.  It's a great example of what can be done with it in the hands of someone with talent and creativity.
