Kellee Santiago, the creator of Thatgamecompany's Journey, will be curating the Ouya store. Her game has won several "Videogame of the year" awards. Admittedly, The game looks beautiful and has a great soundtrack, but it is different from any other game I'd ever seen. The gameplay is pretty much just walking around. No challenge, no real story, nothing. To be perfectly honest, I was bored out of my mind "playing" it, and felt uncomfortable even considering it a game. BUT - and this is important - her game seems to be able to tug on people's emotions and cause a religious experience of sorts. While I seemed to be immune to its charm, A LOT of people do enjoy, not just Journey, but all of her other games.

Her games are, if nothing more, original. Having her curate the Ouya store can be quite powerful in helping deliver the promise of innovation that Ouya has the potential to bring. Here are a few online games recommended by her so you can get a sense of what you can expect:

In Delusion
Cart Life
Dys4ia
Thirty Flights of Loving
Gone Home
Kentucky Route Zero
