12 Unbelievable Indie Games That Deserved Your Attention In 2013
2013 wasn't just about triple-A releases and GTA V – there's a thriving Indie scene out there, and they keep delivering the goods.
It's been an interesting year for the gaming industry: while we've seen massive AAA titles like Grand Theft Auto V smash all records, other big name titles have somewhat struggled compared with their expectations, such as Call Of Duty's 19% sales drop year-on-year. In a year where most game developers have admitted that they've been focusing more on getting ready for the PS4 and XB1, it's been the perfect moment for indie developers to try and steal some thunder and they've really not disappointed. 2013 has seen more ways than ever for developers to get their games out on to the public scene with genuine sales success; Steam Greenlight has led to some great new releases standing tall next to established franchises on the storefront. With promotion also coming through avenues such as the Humble Bundle and a wealth of YouTube coverage, indie games have definitely taken 2013 by storm. If you've missed any of the following games so far this year, then you'd better make sure you get them before we see in 2014.
