What's The Deal With: Indie Games?

<p>Just what is the deal with indie games? When did they become financially viable? How did they become so popular? And what is "indie" anyway??? This week, Jason, Maddy, and Kirk look at the modern history of indie games, from Braid and Castle Crashers to the Nintendo Switch's big bumps. They talk about the rise of digital distribution, some misguided old comments from former Nintendo boss Reggie Fils-Aime, and whether "indie" even means anything anymore.</p><p><strong>One More Thing:</strong></p><p><strong>Kirk</strong>: Monster Hunter Rise</p><p><strong>Maddy</strong>: Vaccine appointment tips</p><p><strong>Jason</strong>: Gnosia</p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p>The excellent Double Fine Adventure documentary series:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVwg-9WL3dE">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVwg-9WL3dE</a></p><p>Arekkz Gaming’s MH Rise longsword tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jscDTUOHdw&ab_channel=ArekkzGaming</p><p>Support Triple Click:<a href="http://maximumfun.org/join"> http://maximumfun.org/join</a></p><p>Join the Triple Click Discord: http://discord.gg/tripleclickpod</p><p>Triple Click Ethics Policy: </p><p><a href="https://maximumfun.org/triple-click-ethics-policy/">https://maximumfun.org/triple-click-ethics-policy/</a></p>
