There are loads of independent games made by lots of different types of people but this documentary focuses on a small group of very pretentious hipsters who make low quality games that most people would not consider games. They talk about social issues and how women have it so hard typical feminist nonsense they never talk about code or anything that you might expect from a documentary about games.i don't like this documentary because it claims to be about games but it isn't and it represents a small minority of indi game makers as though they are the norm when in reality they are the least respected group in the industry they really don't care about games they care about identity politics and slacktivism.

I really loved this movie. It was such a passionate and moving look at the artistry of games development. The documentary focuses on profiling indie developers from around the world and looks at the unique and varied story of how they came to make games.It made me feel like I could make games too and that it doesn't all just have to be call of duty or boring rehashes. If you want to find out about video games that aren't AAA and see the true story-telling potential of games, I recommend you give this movie a look.I seriously went straight home and downloaded The Stanley Parable right after watching the film because it opened my eyes to so many new types of games that I never would have known about before.I loved watching it because it was so uplifting and I really felt like there was this tension of something about to explode. I can't wait to see where the Indie Games scene and all the people profiled in the film are 5 years from now. I'm seeing some great things happening!

I had no interest in games whatsoever and then I watched this documentary. It changed my mind completely! The documentary is so well told and interesting you will be talking about it and thinking about for weeks afterwards. I was surprised to see how diverse games could be. Games can be anything! It was great that the documentary followed female game developers as well as male (and explained how difficult their journey could be). The establishing shots were very interesting of the various cities. It's like when you learn a new word, suddenly you hear it everywhere and now I see game stuff everywhere which I never noticed before! (And the documentary made my husband want to start developing games!)

Hey,This movie was really great and enlightening. :) The editing was really good. Great, factual work and was interesting the whole way through. It featured many artists and different games. It amazes me how they went across Europe and America to find all these cons and artists and they probably had a lot of fun making this documentary. Anyway I would highly recommend it to any of my friends and family. Already have actually. Please watch it, it is well worth your time and some parts are really quite funny.Its a well good laugh to watch with your mates. It gave loads of information on what it is like for those in the industry making games and how hard it can be.
