OK, because with all the edits, people will probably notice that... I've always been bummed by the fact that, in this very page for indie games, there's no list of games or developers and labels. And I decided, just yesterday, to start one of them. I gathered multiple names by looking at some YT videos, a book about indie games that I have in my house... and the result is this big list.

For the games in itself, I took care to select only games that have their own TV Tropes pages. For the names of developers or labels, some of them have pages and some of them haven't. As you can notice, there's still (at the time when I post this message) many pages who don't have their links. I will add them tomorrow (I'm French and actually, it's late night), if somebody else didn't add them before me (and if somebody else did, thank you).

When all the links are added, the lists will be operational for everyone to add. If you find an indie game who have its own page but is not on the list, feel free to add it with the link. Same with a developer, whether it's an individual creator or a company, or a publishing label (just, be sure that it's a label strictly focused on indie gaming, like Devolver or Annapurna Interactive).

Anyway, thanks to people who will contribute at the list, it was a pretty long work (yes, 2 days, it's long for me, OK?) but it was definitely worth the time!

Edit: Lists complete and operational! The only problem is that when I try to add the links to games/companies that have only one word in their name, it don't work properly. So, if someone knows how to fix that, it would be appreciated because I have no idea of why this happens...

Edited by Yooly I cannot fucking wait until I find a real citation that will never become edgy.

I think we should mention the recent blurring of the line by smaller publishers like Nicalis or DotEmu, who tend to handle publishing "indie" games to consoles etc.

Nothing on how people give more praise to indie games than the big-budget games (such as, or maybe especially 'innovation'), as if they're the salvation of modern gaming because of the hatred of companies like EA and Ubisoft?

I am guessing that was left out because it is opinion. Main articles generally don't record opinions.
