The Xbox Live Indie Games section of the Xbox Live Marketplace is depressing. I’ll actually go a step further: it’s utter junk. Most of the games available on it are poor clones of popular games, games filled with p...
In a blog posting on Gamasutra, user James Coote relays his experience going to the “Indie Collective” event in London on September 6. After he released a game on the OUYA console, he became curious as to how indie ...
Platformers in the video game industry have a unique place.  It hosts some of the most nostalgic and beloved franchises of all time, such as Castelvania, Mega Man and Mario.  And, while the genre used to be immensely popul...
Airtight Games, the indie developer known best for titles such as Dark Void, Quantum Conundrum, and the recently released Murdered: Soul Suspect, has quietly shut its doors for good according to a report from Geekwire.com. Pict...
