Seeing the sheer amount of "but indies will save us" in response Mike's post has me feeling real... sad. I don't think people can truly understand how the things Mike is talking about effect the indie games that do get funded or the financial realities of self-publishing.

Game industry continues to be just incredibly bleak behind the scenes. Ecosystem is in free fall. Doubt there’ll be an easy solution, or a quick one. This darkest hour has dragged out to a darkest couple of years.

I *keep* seeing people posting about being laid off from indie studios. First time I signed into LinkedIn in a while I saw a bunch of that. I was laid off from an indie studio, myself. And so forth. Wish I knew the answer other than "get another job and wait it out."

I wish I knew as well. I know a lot of people looking for work that I'd hire in an instant given the chance.
