Heave Ho and Panzer Paladin Highlight a Busy Day 2 at PAX East

PAX East is officially halfway over (though it feels like we’ve been here for a week, at this point). The more time I spend at the convention, the more I’m noticing the following trend: Indie games are the lifeline of this industry. We wouldn’t have nearly as many creative experiences without them, and we certainly wouldn’t have as many risky, boundary-pushing ones, either.

Virtually every game we played today was independently developed (or at least wasn’t from a major publisher). Listen to my thoughts on the day’s games below!
