Good thread on the finances behind indie games.

Okay. Hold up. I need to say something.

This assumes something that drives me nuts. The idea that all games are made for YOU. They aren't.

30* (corrected math) games a day for upwards of 25 million concurrent customers on steam alone seems fine to me. twitter.com/spiderwebsoft/stat

@Rowyn the original post is SUCH a wild take

Like, I can’t listen to all the music released on bandcamp each day either, and thats fine! probably wouldn’t like most of it anyway, because like most humans I have preferences about the art I consume. But some other people probably will like that stuff and I’m glad it’s out there for them

@Satsuma ikr? Okay, so, yes, video games are not food or shelter, humans do not require them for basic survival, what does that have to do with anything? 😂
