Are we living through an indie gaming Renaissance?
Whilst giant software houses are pushing constant reiterations of the next Call of Fortnite, a new breed of developer has risen.
With an inventive and creative edge, indie games and developers are bringing a flurry of new games to market. We explore our favourite recent examples which focus on stories and see indie games as one of the next steps in storytelling.
All of this whilst we sample a traditional German white beer and a definitely non-traditional stout from the US!
