Indie publisher Playdigious, which at one time released mobile versions of Dead Cells and Evoland, has now become part of the Swedish game company Fragbite Group (formerly FunRock). The takeover cost €5 million.

A new free LDtk level editor has appeared on the web. Its author is the creator of Dead Cells. The project is open source and is aimed primarily at indie developers.Attention to LDtk was recently drawn to the publication 80 Level, and for the first time the developer presented his project back in September.

Sales of the indie game Dead Cells exceeded 1 million copies. This became known at GDC 2019 from game designer Sebastian Benard (Sébastien Bénard).

The former marketing manager of Motion Twin, Steve Filby, told in detail how one of the main indie releases of this summer, metroidvania Dead Cells, was progressing.

Nintendo Switch has once again demonstrated that it is an excellent platform for indie. Motion Twin said that for one sold copy of Dead Sells on PlayStation 4, there are four sold versions on the Nintendo console.

A week later, the indie game Dead Cells will be released on Steam. During the period of early access, 750 thousand copies of it were sold. One of the reasons for the success of the game is the attention of developers to criticism from players and the involvement of the community in the development.
