Antichamber. I got more time out of that than Portal 2 and didn't feel the same puzzle burnout i was having towards the end of portal.

EDIT: Argh just saw your post Gurgleflob

I would say Anti-Chamber is a fun one. First person puzzle with lesson/quotes at the beginning/end of each puzzle as you go on, with confusing physics. FTL is a nice indie game as well, with all them spaceyships.

You should check this out. Its fairly short, but it will blow your mind. Also, the best part is that its free to download.

Oh and I've just bought Dont Starve off steam which is on sale, and you get a second copy if you buy it. It is kinda minecraft like, it's basedf off survival rather then building though

Defense Grid, because you like plants vs zombies

SPAZ, very fun game, hard to explain, 2d arcade space shooter with a galaxy map and very indepth upgrades and ship customization

Gratuitous Space Battles, If you like chess type games or watching space battles

Endless Space, freaking awesome 4x (space civ) game

Torchlight 2, is this considered indy? Great d2 style game

Some more tower defense games : Dungeon Defenders, Cubemen (freakin hard), Orcs Must Die, Sol Survivor (bleh graphics but fun game)

Recettear, anime style game dealing with running a item shop, selling to customers, and zelda like 2d dungeons

Evil Genius, I don't think this is technically indy but is basicly Dungeon Keeper...for james bond villans

Nexus, the juptier incident, it's sort of like homeworld but without building ships and much more focused on controling very indepth aspects of a few ships.

Flotilla, it's a rogue like for space combat sims, very interesting art style...fun, bit of a learning curve

From Dust, god game civ that looks amazing, really this is indie?

Uplink, a puzzle game where you are a hacker, it's done how you really would, running files and stuff, it's about timing and resource management

Magicka, umm...hard to explain, dungeon crawler that deals with mixing types of magic to do various spells, great humor

Star Ruler, a indie 4x, not as graphicaly pleasing as Endless Space and much diffrent playstyle

X3 Albion Prelude, I think the X games are indy? Basicly freelancer but less polished graphicly and with WAY WAY more indepth control on the systems, building bases and so on

They Bleed Pixles, sort of like super meat boy but with a lovecraft feel to it, some neat gameplay elements too

Minecraft of course. And Mount & Blade Warband.

Everyone should play that. Plus it's free for the first seven levels so you've no excuse not to try it.

Natural Selection 2, doesn't look like it but that's an indie game.

I'd also suggest Gish and World of Goo.
