An article from IndieStatik about this event: http://indiestatik.com/2013...
A conversation between TotalBiscuit and the owner of IGM: https://twitter.com/Totalbi...
An editorial from John Walker of "Rock, Paper, Shotgun":

“Another month has passed us by and during it, many incredible indie games released so let's celebrate the 12 best from March 2024.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
“February is always a short month but it sure didn't feel like it with all of the top-quality indies that released during it. Let's dive right in!” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
“It's a new year and with that comes a fresh batch of indies so here are the very best of 2024 so far. I hope you enjoy this look back. 😊” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
They wrote a hands-on article on my indie game OCEAN CITY RACING and there was no such thing.
As suggested in the original blog, IGM's paid review policy is less than a month old and was implemented when they changed ownership.
They've now publicly responded, admitting to doing it and intending to keep doing it: http://www.indiegamemag.com...
Oh tha banality. I'm sure reviewers will deduct points at this prospect.
