Oh god I could accidentally spam that comm with recs. My entire played library is almost exclusively indies…or well, indie-vibes.

Is there a semantic qualification for what counts as indie? Like, small studio, literal independent publisher, or just not AA/AAA?

Cuz I know there’s been discussions on how, say, Dave the Diver is not an indie game due to their being a subset of a bigger studio/publisher even though the gameplay reads “indie” as a gameplay loop genre.
