Indie Game: The Movie Exposes Devs' Blood, Sweat, and Tears

Wonder when are we getting Indie game: The movie : The game

Argh!

Your level of love for game-making exactly correlates to your amount of facial hair.

In my case it's the lack of facial hair!

Blow was also completely hairless on the video, so I guess that if you like games you either let hair grow wildly or cut all of it off. There is no middle ground.

I assume that's why there are few indie female developers, because they can't grow a beard.

Obviously I don't have the facial hair to be a successful indie-game developer

EDIT: Oops a bit late to the party

Although I find the trailer overly dramatic, I can relate very well as I gave up my job at Activision to start my own business. What I don't get, however, is why these developers do their game alone. In a few weeks, I could gather a team of 4 developers and eventually added a 5th (no need for an animator early on). The project I'm working on right now couldn't be made by just two persons, and it will take about 6 months to develop rather than 2 years.
