Independent video games (commonly referred to as indie games) are video games created by individuals or small teams generally without video game publisher financial support. Indie games often focus on innovation and rely on digital distribution. Indie gaming has seen a rise in the latter half of the 2000s decade, primarily due to new online distribution methods and development tools.

Some indie games have become very successful financially, such as Braid,World of Goo and Minecraft.


And you agree with that definition?


It is as good as any, but as I already stated I think the term indie is used to sound hip and to describe smaller games thats all.
