We see the term banded about all the time, but what exactly is an indie game?
Typically, it's used to describe a game created by a small team, and without the financial support of a large publisher. Sometimes that definition gets stretched, though, and it's certainly not the case for the popular sea-based adventure Dave the Diver. With its simplistic pixel art style and quirky, experimental gameplay, it certainly looks like a typical indie at first glance, but in reality, its developer, Mintrocket, is a subsidiary of Nexon, a very large South Korean publisher.
