(which
admit
also
like
to

there
is
a
cornucopia
of
projects
where
lack

ey

made
up
for
by
creativity
and
inge-
nuity.
Whether
born

of

it

developers
who
turn
away
from
the
Triple-A
business
and
switch
to
the
Indie-Games world
where
they
can
break
the
chains
of
money
and
can
make
the
games
they

want
to
make
-
in
the
way
they
prefer.

The
which
has
received
92%
positive reviews
on
Steam,
was
developed
by
a
three-
person
team
in
a
Berlin
coworking
space
-
nearly
direct
neighbours
of
the
Triiber-

Ironically,
the
mini

has
given
itself

name
Megagon

In

Megagon

reports
on
the
bumpy

path,
explains
why
they
wanted
to do
it
with-
out
a
publisher
in
the
first
place
and
still
searched
and
found
one,
how
it
worked
with
Kickstarter,
how
the
extraordinary
low-poly
art
style
was
created
and
much
more.
