The Indie Council Podcast

The Indie Council puts an umbrella in their summer of gaming drinks with discussions on Summer Game Fest, Summer Trips, and Steam Next Fest. The greatest hits of this party include Strange Scaffold, July 16 coming for you, and (as always) so many great indies to play.

Showcases! Directs! Broadcasts, oh my! The Indie Council is at Summer Game Fest ready to distill their favorite demos, dish on the most notable announcements, and celebrate one of the busiest weeks of the year.

Need some indie recommendations for a road trip / sick day / while listening to this podcast? The Council recommends some of our fave indies in a variety of scenarios. We also talk through the recent IGN acquisition and it's potential ripples throughout the industry and how SGF is on the horizon.

A new member of The Indie Council has stepped out of the shadows! Giovanni Colantonio is here to endure a tell-all rapid-fire interview and sing the praises of Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. We also all reveal our mid-year top ten indies list and unleash our experiences playing the big May 9 games. It’s a fully packed show.

What are the gaming stigmas we're still holding onto as an industry (or as Indie Council members?) -- Janet, Jenny, Jill, and Mike explore gaming stigmas as well as the recent ID@Xbox Showcase and Tribeca line-up.
