The CMP Game Group (producer of Game Developer magazine, Gamasutra.com, and the Game Developers Conference) established the Independent Games Festival in 1998 to encourage innovation in game development and to recognize the best independent game developers. We saw how the Sundance Film Festival benefited the independent film community, and we wanted to create a similar event for independent game developers.
