What is an Indie Game?
Indie games stand for “independent video games.” At the highest level, they are games created by individuals or small teams who operate independently from major studios, both financially and creatively. This independence allows creators to experiment with unconventional narratives, aesthetics, and game mechanics, which often result in truly distinctive and memorable gaming experiences.

That being said, limiting the definition of indie games solely to those that are self-funded overlooks the full spectrum of the genre.

For instance, some indie games have million-dollar budgets, such as The Witness. Others are distributed by massive studios; the wildly popular Shank was developed by the Canadian studio Klei Entertainment but published by developer giant Electronic Arts.

And what about a game like Minecraft, which started as a modest indie project but was ultimately acquired by Microsoft for $2.5 billion? Is Minecraft still an indie game?

Again, it depends on your definition. The game is now owned by a large studio, but its origins, concept, look, and feel, remain wholeheartedly “indie.”

The point is, a game’s classification as “indie” is complex and typically made up of a combination of factors, including its source of financing but also the game’s concept, graphics, and style.

is your tactic on being wrong just to keep trying to flip the script until you find a way out?

[timber oxide]

That wouldn't work tho

[zealous depot]

Ah crunchy role sent out a little spoiler on Tuesday

[willow pollen]

You already have a very low opinion of me for no reason

[left mantle]

Indie just denotes that it's independent from a publisher

[copper vapor]

it does work

that's what it means

[zealous depot]

Downsides of being subscribed to their youtube channel

[carmine laurel]

You'd expect at least that level of effort from someone that thinks they can't be wrong

[copper vapor]

whatever other things people try to slap on the meaning is just... wrong

[willow pollen]

And I’m on a phone so

[timber oxide]

Doesn't team size also matter

[carmine laurel]

ah, I didnt sub there

[proven tundra]

for no reason

[carmine laurel]

just crunchy for me

[copper vapor]

why would it matter?

[willow pollen]

There you go again putting words i didn’t say in my mouth

[uneven sapphire]

DO you like the new rimrim?

[timber oxide]

Because if it doesn't matter then Genshin Impact is an indie game

[uneven sapphire]

Im kinda mixed on it

[static axle]

nope

[carmine laurel]

the mafia series is both cool and not so hot imo

[left mantle]

But I can't wait till the realization hits that the only reason you think indie is tied to budget is because big publishers used the term to market their underbudgeted games to try to sell them

[carmine laurel]

#╟❓general-offtopic message

[zealous depot]

Their youtube channel sometimes will show the next lineup for anine

Which crunchy role already does

[carmine laurel]

we have longer memory than 3 seconds

I wish that were true

Then maybe you’d remember that you couldn’t oneshot chargers at launch

[proven tundra]

That you couldn't be wrong?

[copper vapor]

so what if it is?

[carmine laurel]

I should actually look at their yt, might see something cool

[copper vapor]

we were just talking about how Star Citizen is an indie game

[timber oxide]

I mean, if we agree that it is an indie game then I have no problem with your statement

But cracking half a million is insane for an indie game

"indies" are not just the shitty pixel-art roguelite deck builders, folks

[carmine laurel]

and one without a massive amount of marketting

[timber oxide]

Oh yeah I know that

[verbal lodge]

And it is still going

[carmine laurel]

League is also indie afaik

[snow tree]

Hey! They are neat shitty pixel-art deck builders!

[copper vapor]

they didn't need marketing, people hyping it up was all the marketing they needed

[timber oxide]

I just had an issue with the dev team size

[verbal lodge]

it might reach 1m if it keeps going like this

[snow tree]

[copper vapor]

and well they did slap silksong trailers on some gaming events like nintendo direct

[timber oxide]

But if that doesn't matter then I don't care anymore

[carmine laurel]

"When you are winning, just don't interfere" - Gabe Newell or something

[copper vapor]

it's big events so you could consider it a sizable marketing campaign

[left mantle]

Pretty certain it does fall under there because the publishing side of things for their games didn't get formed till after launch IIRC but the entire web of subsidiaries isn't entirely clear to me

[verbal lodge]

They were radio silent for awhile

[carmine laurel]

tbh this is bare minimum of marketing for a sequel of a successful game imo

[verbal lodge]

Tbh they only recently made a reveal

And it was very brief

They did not talk about it for years

Thats one of my issues tbh
Team cherry could've handled announcing it better

[copper vapor]

lmao you can see on steam charts the period where the steam store was crapping itself

now the game has >500k players and the chart shoots up

[carmine laurel]

Team Cherry dropping on a thursday is also so much smarter than dropping on a tuesday

[static axle]

do you need marketing when whole fandom is going " WAAAAAAAHHHHH GIB SILKSLOP"

[copper vapor]

chew's day

[carmine laurel]

imagine dealing with mass release numbers and steam maint

[copper vapor]

[carmine laurel]

marketing cant hurt (unless you're just really showing pure trash)

theres always going to be someone that didnt know

[timber oxide]

The baseline is that they publish it themselves in China and the company responsible for publishing it globally is still them under a different name

[carmine laurel]

literally the only reason I've ever wanted to play HK 1 is cause of that straight up "What am I gonna fight the SUn?" clip

Sometimes I have to file insurance and data too

[copper vapor]

and the one set that felt comfy to wear, the guy was tryina talk me out of buying it

Speaking of which i got a pair of glasses I gotta pick up hopefully soon

Of course have to blame the vendor before self

She input prescription of right eye to left eye

Like no shit its gonna be wrong

Yeh

Thats online glasses order for you

Yep

Well no if you order online Walmart would deliver it to your home

But you need to know your PPD and stuff to order properly

Thats why we tell them that they def should go to the store as we can double check their measurement

PPD usually isnt significant unless you are more than 7 Diop

guys help
wife's cat is sleeping with one eye open
it's freaking me out

[stiff prism]

Yo guys, this isnt for me (and please dont give me a black mark mods im not related to this person just trying to help them out)

but, how does one appeal a ban from the discord? Im trying to look around for a bot i can direct them to but there doesnt seem to be one?

[slim magnet]

bro's not gonna get surprised by no one

[copper vapor]

#1 is peam
yawning really is contagious

[teal spade]

by not getting banned

or contact a mod idfk

[stiff prism]

Lmao true, but theres mentions of it around the discord

[copper vapor]

were they banned because their account got hacked or were they just being insufferable assholes

[stiff prism]

Generally bigger discords have a bot you can contact i assumed gamma had one

[teal spade]

@sick trail someone wants to unban a bot or an alt account!

[stiff prism]

I wasnt here, i dont know them personally so i dont know But.

He said his reasoning was "i had a sussy profile picture and was asleep when mods told me to change it"

[teal spade]

hang on

wait up

[stiff prism]

I find that a bit too easy to belive, but idk again just trying to help him

[teal spade]

pause

one sec

[copper vapor]

oh right it's thursday

[teal spade]

a moment please

[copper vapor]

YO

[teal spade]

you have NO IDEA who that guy is

[copper vapor]

GHOSTRUNNER 2 FREE NEXT WEEK

(I already own it)

[teal spade]

but you went "yea, I'll see if I can unban you"

[thin bobcat]

We don't really ban people for nothing, so an appeal is rarely of any use

[stiff prism]

Um, its called being helpful?

[thin bobcat]

So we don't implement a bot for it either

[left mantle]

If they had a "sussy" profile pic it was very likely something REALLY fucked.

[stiff prism]

im not trying to "get him" unbanned i was just seeing who he needs to contact to start an appeal

again

if gamma has one, which yall are saying isnt the case

[teal spade]

dam, guess you should be a helper

[thin bobcat]

Who was it?

[timid hollow]

tbf tho

[thin bobcat]

Give me his user id and I will tell you if it's even of any use

[carmine laurel]

fr tho

[timid hollow]

every ban i saw was a warning first with a waittime

[stiff prism]

Lmao, i had a feeling this was gonna be a known offender

Aight, can i atleast get the scoop of how far his crimes go back 😄

[carmine laurel]

I put money on it being banned for some kind of pfp/profile issue that was never responsive

[stiff prism]

oh

[copper vapor]

yea he said as much up above

had a "sussy pfp" and "was asleep" when mods asked him to change it

[stiff prism]

I mean he did say mods asked him to change it but he was "asleep" when they talked to him so he couldent reply

but again

[copper vapor]

quotation marks for emphasis

[carmine laurel]

yeah but was it nazi pfp or porn pfp

[thin bobcat]

I said user id, not username

[sick trail]

Gimme his ID, like yours: 702478809009487934

[timid hollow]

nazi porn

[stiff prism]

That would be MEGA sus on the mods behalf

[stiff prism]

Ah mb one sec

they give you whole day to change your pfp

[teal spade]

IS IT?!

[thin bobcat]

I have already responded to reddit posts asking to be unbanned, if the user was banned for something in the past and it's long enough ago, I am fine with trying to help him get unbanned

[sour rivet]

a year ago

[stiff prism]

Right, so a mod asked him to change it he didnt comply

[teal spade]

keep him dead

[sick trail]

That's an Aldo ban!

[thin bobcat]

It was an Aldo ban

[stiff prism]

then he tried to evade a ban?

[sick trail]

[thin bobcat]

It was definitely deserved then lmao

[teal spade]

ALDO BAN

[stiff prism]

Aight, ill relay the info

[carmine laurel]

Aldo ban

[thin bobcat]

Like 100% deserved

[carmine laurel]

thats a bingo moment

[left mantle]

Yeah if it was aldo that's not gonna change

[thin bobcat]

Aldo is a dickhead but he took his moderation serious

[sick trail]

Banned moderator ban

[copper vapor]

[stiff prism]

But again just to clarify, there's no way for him to appeal? Like at all

[copper vapor]

banception

[carmine laurel]

I think we can safely cash in on it being some kind of dogwhistle

[stiff prism]

cuz thats orignally what he was askin for

[sour rivet]

its been a year

howcome hes tryna appeal now

[slim magnet]

except for that one time

[left mantle]

Didn't we have this discussion that aldo only left and it was josta that got banned after he left?

[carmine laurel]

that was with Falco

[stiff prism]

you'd have to ask him idk

[sour rivet]

i dont want to

[left mantle]

Holy shit dry is turning into falco

[thin bobcat]

Wdym

[stiff prism]

again i figured gamma would have like a audit bot that handles these things like other big discords

[left mantle]

We don't need 2 italians

[stiff prism]

but each to their own i suppose

[teal spade]

better question, how did he get in contact with you to ask you for this favor?

[stiff prism]

EFP discord

[carmine laurel]

Time to cut back the layers

[slim magnet]

the time he went on a rampage on the spanish channel because he woke up on his left foot

[stiff prism]

Just asked in mainchat there

[sick trail]

I bet it was n-word pronouns and some funni name

[slim magnet]

when i got hit with a 2 week mute for posting a freddy vs jason gif

[copper vapor]

hey look das me

[slim magnet]

and like 3 dudes got the boot

[sick trail]

You're an unc

[left mantle]

Baseball, huh?

[sick trail]

Year old screenshot

[stiff prism]

I cant post pics so i cant show the mainchat message, but its literally him just asking in the EFP chat if they know of some bot

[thin bobcat]

Well, sounds about right

[carmine laurel]

that lead in is absolutely a set up for a finisher

[slim magnet]

it happened during the carboniferous and yes i'm petty about it

but funny nonetheless in hindsight

[stiff prism]

And again, i thought i might be nice and help out the guy incase it was a unfair case Which its not now

[slim magnet]

like dude i get it, freddy vs jason was a dogshit fucking movie

but it doesn't warrant that reaction

[stiff prism]

Aight, well ill tell him that then hes gone for life

[copper vapor]

one week for nightreign hard mode

i just hope im not associated with him now mods, i just wanted to do something nice 😭

[teal spade]

it was the most wishlisted game on steam

[slim magnet]

i wish i had bought a fumo before touhou 16

[teal spade]

the og was great metroidvania

and appearently the devs had so much fun making Silksong that they constantly delayed the game cuz they kept adding more shit

[pallid raft]

im liking it so far

i did like nine sols more

[copper vapor]

yep

[pallid raft]

plus all the dlc is completely free

[left mantle]

metroidvania is just one of those genres where if you make a decent game there's gonna be someone who wants to play it

[pallid raft]

its got good bosses, tons of content, tons of replayablility, good levels, and good lore

and is cheap

so yeah I caught 3 fishes today, life’s good

also hollow knight is just a beloved franchise

one of the greatest metroidvanias of the modern age

@pure compass far as i can tell from quick search, do 4-6 years depending on where and what you study, then residency, cant find a concrete number but i assume it can take up to1 10 depending on specialization, then possibly further years of fellowship

tldr; a lot

I think you should sue them

from what i've seen; ~800$ on low end, 2-3k on medium, then keeps climbing as experience and skills increase

The rate will go down

[timber oxide]

No it's not

if it was 40$ I wouldn't have bought it

thank goodness they're generous

[timber oxide]

I wouldn't buy it either way

[verbal lodge]

we've been waiting so long

[timber oxide]

I don't care

Look, I get it, it's cool that it came out, but it's def not the best game ever made and I'm not gonna pretend it is

[verbal lodge]

Also I'll bet the next one that'll break every record is GTA6

for sure

Everything about GTA is mid as fuck for me but it's hugely popular for the casual gamer

[timber oxide]

That's why console gamers will beta test it before we do

[proven tundra]

GTA 6 won't break the record
But it'll definitely tie the record
Of least amount of shits I can give about something

[timber oxide]

I'm definitely more interested in GTA6 than in Silksong but it's still not that much

[slim magnet]

considering how bad rockstar pc ports are i don't think this is the case

Can't go lower than zero shits given

one night i was in newbies chat asking if grok can add the gun that i like from tarkov when suddenly it happened
a full wall of gifs going from goatsee to gentalia gore it was dreadful
the newbies looked in horror as the jannies were awoken from their slumber to witness the awful deeds being done
but no matter how many messages they deleted
no matter how many grey names they banned
they just kept coming
the german goreposter could not be silenced
for 3 long egregious hours it kept happening
like sleeper agents activating
wall of gifs after ones as the little newbies watched and cried but to no avail
all hope was lost until one jannie did something out of desperation
in all the haste his 300 pound frame allowed
the jannie wiped of the tendie crumbs from his stumpy fingers
he removed image perms for everyone
truly one of the events of all time

if anything, surely the story of 6 will be good

[slim magnet]

like really the only rockstar pc port to ever be good was rdr1

[timber oxide]

Hopefully

[verbal lodge]

gta 5's story was ok

Its not trying to be shakespeare but its also not just generic aaa slop story like call of duty or whatever

[timber oxide]

Story of V was mid

[slim magnet]

and that wasn't done in house

unsurprisingly

but holy shit that port is good

[frozen void]

i liked V but yeah the story wasnt some crazy artistic shit , but the characters made up for it

[timber oxide]

Another thing that wasn't done in house were the remakes of III, VC and SA

[verbal lodge]

gta 5 was alright
but then there is vice city

imagine being in tommy's shoes
you try to prove yourself
a team of 11 hitmen sent after you and you slaughter them

[slim magnet]

but by a subsidiary

technically in house

[verbal lodge]

you lose 15 years of your life to confront the dickhead who put you there
that's a lovey story

the 3D era was full of gems

[timber oxide]

Unironically the thing I like the most about GTA5 was Online

[frozen void]

gta vice city is basically your average Mafia story , young guy tries to prove himself, gets played by the boss, comes back from jail more mature and with vengance in mind etc

[covert stone]

Which level do you have to be to get image/gif perms? I thought I had them last time I played this game…

[frozen void]

but the game was made back when mafia stories were peak so yeah

[boreal belfry]

replaying RDR2
damn i cant belive how well made this game is..

[slim magnet]

vice city is a scarface parody

the entire run time of the game

[frozen void]

yeah pretty much

i mean diaz's mansion is literally that

[slim magnet]

yeah literally

[frozen void]

all we are missing is the grenade launcher scene

[proven tundra]

No one has image perms

[boreal belfry]

Mafia II was pewk for me

i loved the story

[proven tundra]

They were taken away from us by a great injustice

[verbal lodge]

also, gta 6 price is unknown

[covert stone]

I presume someone else ruined it for everyone?

[verbal lodge]

but I'll bet on it making 100$ the new norm, at minimum

maybe even 120

[copper vapor]

agree

[timber oxide]

It's all a lie, the image perms were taken away so that people can't spoil Falco with images

[proven tundra]

#╟❓general-offtopic message

[slim magnet]

yeah it's setting up 100 as the norm

[proven tundra]

Falco was the goatse poster all along!

[slim magnet]

i subscribe to that theory

[copper vapor]

vito, joe and henry

I just loved them

[verbal lodge]

wait the incident was in newbies?

i thought it was the entire server

[proven tundra]

Yes

[timber oxide]

The incident started in newbies

[verbal lodge]

thankfully i was lurking

[timber oxide]

But someone got bitten and it spread everywhere

[verbal lodge]

outside of this place

[boreal belfry]

from basic veteran and boy who needa work
to mafia

[timber oxide]

I actually saw it live, not very impressive if you ask me

Pretty mid stuff

3/10 troll

[covert stone]

I wasn’t even here, it’s like that one image of Childish Gambino holding a pizza in a burning apartment

[proven tundra]

Image perms died for a mid troll
2025 is surely the worst year in human history

[timber oxide]

But I give the guy bonus points for being very determined

[vital venture]

Should've made it at least good material

[proven tundra]

I saw what you deleted

[timber oxide]

[verbal lodge]

this reminds me of another server im in, image perms forever off

except for the cool people

[timber oxide]

Shit server
