Semi-related, does anyone have any suggestions for outlets, channels, etc. that are interested in more underground, alternative, side of games?
I looked fairly thoroughly in the first few years, but there could be new ones in the years since I looked and could have always missed some initially.

With this drive I am opening up pitches for writing about the games and developers that have contributed to Indiepocalypse.
It's $200 for ~2 pages(~1k words ) with the only requirement be that it be about past contributors. (luckily there's ~700 of them)

The 70th issue of Indiepocalypse is out this week and I'm running the usual 'every 10 issue' pledge drive! Most of the time that means it's annual, but since it's the second drive this year, it's a patron drive instead!
The goal though of 'break even' remains the same.
