Indie games, short for "independent games," are video games created by individuals or small development teams without the financial and technical support of large game publishers, in contrast to most "AAA" games. These games are typically developed with limited budgets and often reflect unique or unconventional ideas. Indie games are known for their creative freedom, innovation, and personal touch, often exploring niche genres or experimental gameplay mechanics that larger studios might avoid. They are usually sold through digital distribution channels rather than at retail due to a lack of publisher support.
