Us and the Game Industry is the latest documentary about indies
Those interested in SSX and Sundance darling Indie Game: The Movie might also be interested in another documentary on indies, Us and the Game Industry. The film, according to IndieGames, documents developers “reinventing the medium of game design and challenging the established norms with their finely crafted work.” The film contains some names which should sound familiar to you, such as: thatgamecompany, Spry Fox, Jason Rohrer among others. According to the film blurb, the documentary will explore the developer’s “motivation, design process, focus and execution… connecting people and providing the possibility for uncharted experiences outside the normal realm of commercial games.” The official webpage for the film is under construction at this point, but you can watch a trailer for it below.

Quick quotes: thatgamecompany “could definitely see” past efforts on Vita
“I could definitely see all of thatgamecompany’s titles on the Vita. But, as you said, we’re a team of 12, so for us in each title we just try to focus on the specific platform we’re distributing on, and then leave the future to the future.” – thatgamecompany co-founder Kelle Santiago, speaking to Joystiq on possibly bringing Flow, Flower and Journey to Vita.
