ShellShock Live

8BitMMO is a persistent-world indie MMO first released in 2015, focused on building and sandbox multiplayer gameplay. As a niche, indie title that is nearly a decade old, it has a much smaller active community compared to its launch, but may still retain a dedicated base of dozens to a few hundred daily players.

ShellShock Live is a turn-based action/strategy game with multiplayer modes, released in 2019. Developed by indie studio kChamp Games, it has niche but loyal online communities. As a smaller indie title that's now several years old, active player counts have declined, but the game still supports daily matches for dedicated players across platforms. Its presence on Steam and multiple consoles, as well as active communities, suggest a daily player base in the low thousands.
