My aim is to cover a different range than other websites (and the few magazines we have left) and instead focus on the lesser-known, under-the-radar, independent games. The best thing about games of this type is that they're often very easy to come across. Many get released as freeware to find a wider audience; those that don't very rarely carry the £40 price tag attached to blockbuster releases.
Indie games, unlike the music of the same name, are defined not by style but by substance. Indie games originate from small developers, some of whom will never make another game beyond their debut. Although it's true that indie games share a lot of common motifs they're also vastly different from one title to the next. It's my hope that my readers discover some new games to try through my blog, rather than simply reading one guy's opinions in a sea of thousands about the newest Call of Duty.
Have fun boys and girls.
