While the indie game scene is flourishing in America, there's not a lot of thought given to foreign scenes. Japan is probably the largest and most influential games market, so of course they've got indie devs. Branching Paths, a documentary directed by Anne Ferrero, serves to shed some light on the indie game scene in Japan. Branching Paths features interviews and behind-the-scenes footage with indie creators within the Japanese scene, focusing on their day-to-day struggles and the difficulty which comes with pursuing a career in indie game development. Available today on Steam and PLAYISM, Branching Paths is an 83-minute journey through the world of Japanese indie games. It features team members from PLAYISM, Onion Games, PixelJunk, and countless other publications and developers alike. Pick it up below for $9.99 or your regional equivalent. -Justin Branching Paths |
