Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong section I took my best guess before posting.
I wanted to reach out to the Indie Developer Scene myself and find out if there is any interest in our project which has just been accepted for crowdfunding.
I am an avid follower of both the opensource and indie game scene, I would really like to see Indie Devs make a comeback like the golden days and really drive innovation and creativity in a boring rinse and repeat market.
After following a number of new development teams, it became clear that the biggest hurdle in this day and age is visibility. 4 of the 5 projects I was following stopped production of there projects, either due to failed crowdfunding, or project rejections from places like Steam Greenlight, or Desuras IndieDB. Yet all of the projects looked very promising.
It's my belief that the Indie Scene needs a central platform to generate a fan following, before taking the next step into crowdfunding or services like Greenlight, and apparently I'm not alone.
I've teamed up with one of the ex-Desura developers to bring our idea from plans to paper to PC. introducing CODENAME:Storm
Please see our crowdfunding project page for all the information of what this service could mean for the developers, and if you agree with what we are proposing, help support us in achieving our funding goal and getting our Indie Developers the visibility they deserve!
