    How is Marvel Snap indie?

    It’s clear he has a love for games that not enough decision makers do, but is he using the term to refer to games and publishers that are simply “small”?

    The article even includes the term “indie publisher” which is an oxymoron.

      I think the part about Marvel Snap is just his obsession, not that its indie.

      The indie publisher thing is debatable though, as the term indie has kind of evolved. Indie publishers, IMO, are publishers that specialise in publishing games developed by indie studios.
