Last night, we did our first SXSW screening here in Austin. Despite the somewhat dreary weather, it was a pretty full house and a really nice audience.  Some of whom decided to write about the film.  Here's some of the feedback to our Texas debut!

"Joystick Joy"
The Austin Chronicle

"[IGTM] recaptured the rapturous marvel that games can invoke" 
The Venture

One does not need to know the difference between a Flash game, an Xbox or an Atari to appreciate the vision, passion and drive of the subjects of “Indie Game: The Movie 
Austin 360

"It was easy to get sucked into this film and ride the emotional roller coaster of independent game development." 
The Bellhop

Indie Game: The Movie will go a long way towards elevating games as a legit art. Elegant & engrossing (even for a nongamer)
Stephen Saito

INDIE GAME THE MOVIE was so ridiculously inspiring. A great tribute to the NES gen and the creatives it inspired. To creativity in general.
