I very much enjoy Melos and Marina's games. "Anodyne 2" is a must play to anyone who loved the Zelda series as it's a mishmash of 3D N64 gameplay with over the head 2D dungeoning. It has such uniqueness and strangeness that I still remember it years later.
"Even the Ocean" was also memorable to me. It is not the masterpiece A2 was IMO but the issues held weight. And having an unconventional protagonist in terms of body type, ethnicity, and sexual orientation was so novel at the time to me.
Thanks for opening the source code! I know HN members will be super critical as to "Oh this isn't Open Source" but you have the licenses available for review and that's where it really matters. The fact that the code is out there for review is a huge step and I hope more devs do it as it's a form of historical preservation in my eyes.
