"If there was ever a film that went into depth about being an indie game developer, then this was it. Indie Game: The Movie is a documentary set around three developers and their 3 games; Team Meat with Super Meat Boy, Polytron with Fez and Number None, Inc with Braid. All three of these games has received critical acclaim, but this film follows the journey of the developers as they develop their games, but boy is there more to developing these games than we thought."

SteamFirst: Steam is offering a great bundle sale today including all of the games associated with Indie Game The Movie. Included for a total of $9.99 you will get Super Meat Boy, Fez, Braid, Indie Game The Movie and The Special Edition to Indie Game The Movie.

In an era of Hollywood action shooters and increasingly competitive on-line gamers, it can often be the most subtle attention to detail and characterization that appeals to our train of thought.
