Indeego Games

• Promote diversity in the supply of games by not to focus on securities with high potential only
• Unleash the expression of players and to participate actively in the creative process
• Gather the European independent scene, building bridges between players and designers, assist them to develop independently and to live by providing a channel between other dissemination.

At last, Indeego Games invites all the players to "play different", more intelligently ("Play Smart") while discovering the diversity of the indie cultural and creativity trends.

We believe that the achievement of objectives, that the accomplishment of the mission that was given Indeego Games requires compliance with certain core values, and genuine respect for each of the ethics involved in the value chain.

I) Independent creators deserve to be recognized

The game is not an industrial product, but a work of creation, a cultural product. For the general public, a game is still tied to his publisher.

We talk about the last title of Ubisoft or Electronic Arts. It is unusual is cited in the media studio creation or the author as such. According to Raph Koster - game designer whose opinion matters a lot in the game world - "Content is not worth a damn. What is of value is a relationship between the consumer and the producer. " Other creative industries have been able to bring individual talents. By reducing the value chain, offering players the opportunity to contact the creators, Indeego Games entends participate in this recovery.



II) The distribution must be fair, thus opening the door to new kind of online distribution models :

We are convinced that it is possible to create conditions for a triple-win relationship in which the portal, players and developers would be winners. Games Indeego guaranteed a fair share of income, so that developers are paid enough to be able to develop other titles.

That is the principle of fair trade be applied to the distribution of games and cultural products. In this context, we agree to the establishment of a strategy and a number of rules of conduct and best practices.



III) Indeego Games stands as an agile firm
