A new indie documentary challenger has appeared! Whereas Indie Game: The Movie takes viewers on a roller coaster ride of indie game development, Us and the Game Industry aims to explore specifically those indie developers who are “reinventing the medium of game design and challenging the established norms with their finely crafted work.”

As further described on the Vimeo page, “Us and the Game Industry is a film about the new thinkers at the new frontier of experimental computer game development.” Those new thinkers chosen for the trailer are thatgamecompany (Flower, Journey), Spry Fox (Realm of the Mad God, Steambirds: Survival), and Jason Rohrer (Sleep is Death, Inside a Star-filled Sky). “This film will explore how their motivation, design process, focus and execution are creating unique and new possibilities of connecting people and providing the possibility for uncharted experiences outside the normal realm of commercial games.”

As of this writing, the Us and the Game Industry official site is under construction. When more information becomes available, if you all are interested, I’ll definitely share it!
