I'm looking for titles that are meta or break the 4th wall like Undertale, Doki Doki Literature Club, Stanley Parable, etc.

One Shot was suggested. I need to try it.

Anything else?

The Neptunia series, especially the main JRPG series (Re:Birth1 and sequels) essentially don't even have a 4th wall, since Neptune is constantly smashing it down.

The series is also chock-full of gaming stuff due to its setting: the world "Gamindustri" is basically split into 4 principal nations representing console manufacturers, ruled by goddesses/CPUs ("Console Patron Units") representing consoles. There's also a "PC continent" and "Hello Continent", the latter representing mobile games. Neither of those two, as far as I know, plays any major role in the games.

The games themselves a hit or miss. You either like them, or you don't. And even though I like them, there's still a lot I could complain about :-) So, handle with care.

"Dust: An Elysian Tail" also has its fair share of 4th wall breaking
