Why They Support Indie Games

Some people consistently use their platforms to help independent games get seen. We asked our Indie Game Advocates one question: Why do you make time to support independent games and developers? Here’s what they had to say.

Synth Potato

“Indie games make up the backbone of the entire video game industry, so much innovation and fresh ideas are coming from indie developers. I truly believe that highlighting indie titles is the duty of every gaming content creator as it gives games with no marketing a real shot at making a huge dent in the industry. I am proud to be one of those content creators!”

Spawnyaard

"Indie/small games are purely driven by passion and not profit, while they do their work of delivering some of the exceptional and innovative games the least I could do is spread the word and share the joy of wonderful games with the gaming community."

Wesley

"I love the personal connection you get to have when you work with an independent developer. I believe they're some of the most creative and hard working people out there, yet so many of them are overlooked. Using whatever platform I have to support them is the best way I can show my appreciation."

ArronAutomata

"I admire Indie developers because they put their heart and soul into bringing their dreams to life. They create unique stories for players around the world to experience. Indie games are extremely special."

MOHD

"I get way more excited about games made by a solo dev or a small indie team. You can feel the passion behind their ideas, and when they actually bring them to life, the results can be incredible. Sometimes you discover the game with barely any marketing, and suddenly you’re hooked. That’s why I always keep an eye on indie games!"

Nikfor

"I make time for indie games because they often take risks and bring ideas you just don’t see in bigger releases. I love discovering something creative or unexpected, then sharing those moments with people who might have otherwise missed the game. Giving good projects more eyes is always worth it."

Jake Lucky

“I think some of the nicest and kindest people in the space are solo or independent developers. People who somehow can find the time to work a fulltime job whilst making their dream game, and then are willing to share that story with me? Those are the people I will always want to help."

Paula Vaynshteyn

“I love finding hidden gems in the piles of games being released into the wilds of the internet every day, and I believe every game deserves to find the players who love it as much as the developer does! I spend my time not only covering indie games, but also supporting those who make them.”

Tenukibozu

"I love watching indie games that are full of original ideas. Indie games teach us that there are no limits to human creativity. That's why I want to do everything I can to keep the indie game culture alive and developing."

NinjaGo91

"Indie developers take creative risks that make gaming more exciting

If I can help even one great game reach a wider audience, I feel I've made a meaningful contribution to both the developers and the gaming community."

JaePlayzGamez

"I make time to support indie games and devs because they champion creativity, innovation and passion in a time where the industry is sadly, and increasingly, falling prey to cooperate greed and creative stagnation."

AC Brotherhood Gaming

"Indie devs build games with passion creating unique personal experiences that AAA studios rarely touch. Making time for games is my way of giving love back, to the creators keeping the industry fresh, creative and real. I am happy to be a part of indie games."

Games with Dave

"I love finding games people haven’t heard of and helping the developers behind them get noticed. I’m currently working through a series showcasing 300 indie games on X. I gathered over 300 games from recent posts.

If a post helps someone discover their next favourite game or brings a developer a few more wishlists, that’s time well spent."
