@junehe99, @Unicat, @TenthChain - love indie gaming and am especially into indie tabletop titles right now. Do you think there's space in this session to discuss or otherwise explore some of the ways openness and decentralization can help indie games find their audiences despite all the online resources big studios control? Are there development and publication strategies related to internet health issues like openness and decentralization that your audience could use?
