Ascendant is Everything Wrong With Modern Indie Game Development
I played the Ascendant open beta, and it left me conflicted, and prompted a discussion regarding the state of game development in the modern era. I explore the strengths and limitations of the modern indie dev, the gap in resources between triple a companies and their indie counter-parts, and the need for good indie ideas to find their way into actual budgets.
