   unless the game is made by a team of 5 or less, it's almost certainly not indie.

     @MeBigbrain it's just like how they are trying to destroy country music now. Once they're done with that, they'll come for bluegrass too.

     @sickburnbro Having thoroughly infected Triple-A to the point of making it a pejorative, the communistoid scum seeks to destroy the indie market as well.

     @nobullyplz @sickburnbro it wasn't even a complex game, more of a walk along story
     i liked it but there's no reason why more than five people should have been involved, including voice actors

     @eee @nobullyplz yup, well that's the big question: what is a "indie" and what is a "small studio" game? Nowadays they have games where people blow like what, 100 million and multiple teams of dozens of people.
     
     But I think 5, is probably right, you might be able to exclude voice actors from that, if they have them.

     @eee @BroDrillard @nobullyplz I mean, it's kind of the same as movies. They require a cast of hundreds of critical technical people for a modern film, but all they get is a few pixels at the end when most people have switched to the next thing.

     Tangential note: it irks me to no end that people have their names on shitty movies and games. But no dev's name is ever mentioned on commercially successful and/or indispensable software because "muh professionalism".
