With all the libraries, tools and content delivery it now feels easier than ever to do indie games, which may be causing abundance in games? We have all socials, entertainment industry, etc competing for attention, so it's a tough market.
That's why I like pico-8 where people just come up with little fun games without expecting to make their living out of it. I just wish they would have the ability to zap the game dev couple sats when I enjoyed the game.
