Usually known for their internal online and mobile games. In 2023 we get Dave the Diver and Lies of P which are non mobile single player games.

Tangentially is 2023 chock full of great games because the pandemic held up the development of so many studios?

    Those are fake indie games. They re-create the indie aesthethic to appeal to ethical consumers.

    Dave the diver is not indie because it’s published by Nexon.

    Lies of P is made by a previously unsuccessful company, but it’s also not indie. They made a lot of games in the past like Battlefield Online

      Interesting, I guess the market for games as service or big games is not so profitable now, it would be like if Disney funded a small movie.
