• Indie Games, Indie Film - DejaVu

  by Adam Saltsman, James Swirsky, Lisanne Pajot, Phil Fish and Wiley Wiggins

  Nearly two decades ago, independent film ushered in a wave of new voices, new stories and a new way of looking at the industry. Fast forward to present day and independent games are reinvigorating an industry in the same way. The parallels between these respective moments in time are quite strong. In an age of online distribution and accessible technology, the independent artist of today would seem to have quite a bit more weighted in their favour ... or do they?
