I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

Alright! Let's actually talk about this waterfall thing. It is an amazing showcase of many things that I adore from late 90s/early 2000s graphics.
I am replicating this in Blender through mere observation, so some things might not be fully accurate to the mind-boggling effects of the PS1.

We set out to make a quick horror-puzzler since funding is rare these days. What we ended up making is so much more than I could have hoped. Super proud of what 5 people working mostly part-time could accomplish, and I have so much gratitude to this tiny team, and all the people that helped!

yeah this is fucked up? If the people who did the shit the award is for don't work there anymore why would you give the award to their old boss. bunch o' shit
I *do* think however that it's grotesque to be giving awards to companies that have laid off huge chunks of the workforce that worked on these games that are now getting awards

"surely there's a more nuanced take" isn't totally unreasonable excepting when you use your next breath to say "-because actually I think the AI voice thing everyone hates is good, actually" and then follow it up with some AI bro bullshit about how AI voice is actually very human and will connect us
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.
