Skyway, eat your heart out. The rest of us will just have to wait and see if the documentary is actually any good despite the badly groomed facial hair.

Looks like emo faggotry but I'll surely check it out. Plus, the Super meat boy guy has Sunn o))) t-shirt. Nice.

Yeah, the Super Meat Boys guys aren't that bad because they're just making a platformer and aren't trying to be super pretentious or anything. The Fez guy is annoying as fuck, though.

Anyways:

Indie games = only platformers or/and hipster-shit?

Am I wrong?

Yes, you are terribly wrong.

Indeed, not all indie games are "8 bit is teh new cool".

 

[Peter]

But sadly this movie seems to be focusing on those guys. Though, to be fair, the pretentious, retro TIG Source crowd do a lot more to put themselves out there than any other indie devs/communities, so the rest have themselves to blame, imo.

Jesus fucking christ.

Guys, obviously I know that indie games != "only platformers or/and hipster-shit".
I meant that in this movie (at least in the trailer) they are showing it like it is "only platformers or/and hipster-shit".

I'm kind of interested in this movie (maybe it's because I like to belive that some games are something more than just game/entertainment), but those silly-hipster-egocentric-sissys aren't my subject of interests, really.

Supply and demand. How many retards love Mario and Zelda even though they are now 20, 30 year old? Many. So these guys try to appeal to that cuteness with a bunch of cute platformers.

And actually, there are good indie games that are neither of these.

Wait, this is a real movie? Trailer totally looks like a parody, with really hilarious touches too like that Sunn shirt. But truth is often more amazing than fiction.
