AAA games compete for attention with million-dollar marketing campaigns.
Indie developers compete with:
a GIF
three hashtags
a Steam link
and unreasonable levels of optimism.
Respect. ๐ซก

I want to find 10 indie games today that almost nobody is talking about.
If your game has:
< 10,000 wishlists
< 1,000 followers
or basically zero marketing budget
drop it below.
Being small is literally the requirement. ๐
#indiegames#indiedev
Enough polished trailers.
Show me your game when it was UGLY.
First prototype vs current version.
Those transformations are way more interesting than people realize. ๐

Indie game development:
10% making the game
10% fixing bugs
10% wondering why that bug exists
10% making trailers
10% Steam page
10% social media
10% Discord
10% analytics
20% staring at the screen questioning your life choices
Accurate?

Gamers:
Whatโs the LAST indie game that made you think:
โhow the hell did one person / a tiny team make this?โ
I need new games to investigate. ๐

Unpopular opinion:
An indie game with a strong identity and rough edges is usually more interesting than a perfectly polished game that looks like everything else.
Give me weird mechanics.
Give me strange art.
Give me games made by obsessed developers.
