Indie style game?

As inaccurate as it is to talk abojt publisher size, it is helpful to give ideas to aesthetics and budget. I find myself more interested in smaller games like this, so I pay special attention when the term "indie" is used, even if it's from a big publisher (child of light is another good example)

Sure. No one uses that term though.

Double As been used for decades but sure no one uses it.

[-] dom@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago

Ok. I was being hyperbolic. But clearly AA isn't used nearly as much as "indie" is.

Fair.

But we should start using it more than, I feel there’s a big vibe difference between indie and shareholder-adjacent games.
