{{Video game industry}}
This is a list of developers of [[indie games]], which includes [[video game]] developers who are not owned by nor do they receive significant financial backing from a [[video game publisher]]. Independent developers, which can be single individuals, small groups, or large organizations, retain operational control over their organizations and processes. Some self-publish their own games while others work with publishers.
