You're very right because standing out is going to be very tough for the Indie game developers. So,. it's very easy to make the games that people really love.

One of the biggest challenges for indie developers is visibility. There are more games releasing than ever, so even good projects struggle to get attention.

Not being able to reach a wider audience, marketing and sustainability are the biggest challenges most indie developers face. Some of them would push go build better games, but when they don't get the support that they need, they can only end up doing little.

Indie developers face intense competition, rising marketing costs, and limited budgets. Even great games can struggle for visibility in crowded stores.

Another hurdle that indie developers face is the time factor. Games don’t get built over night. It takes a lot of time to build one, and some don’t factor that into their equation when they’re building one.

Sure, money can be a major hurdle, but I would honestly say the time factor is a bigger hurdle.

There’s also a lot of competition in the indie scene as well, however, there’s still plenty of space for more games to succeed in today’s market.

I feel like a lot of them release similar games, so they are crowding the market that is dominating by something else. It's tough being one.
