In this discussion, we dive into the indie gaming world and how difficult it has become to distribute indie games. We talk about some of the controversy with policing games, getting them into the store, the flood of games that come out and more.

For this CLIP we discuss how itch.io curates its games and how this is a positive thing for gaming.
