A question, part 2

[clearmind]

The second part of this series:

When someone is described as an independent game developer, what do you think of?
Again, don't just mention names or production companies. Be as detailed as possible.

Comments

Someone that doesn't have corporate backing for the creation of a game. Which they make out of pocket or with help from a few others and then market it.

I don't play video games nearly as much as I watch films, so not sure what I can offer here

You...

[sandmistress]

A person creating a game with little/no financing or backing by a software company. This person will most likely release their game for free or for a very small fee. I don't really know how they could shop their creation to companies, as an independent filmmaker would hunt for a distributor.
