We've been around long enough to remember the days when Steam was curated by hand, with 20 or so titles added to the storefront in any given month. Today, roughly 2,000 games go live every month on Steam, and that's not counting all of the console, mobile and VR titles we have to consider. A vast majority of these games come from smaller teams, solo creators, artist collectives and independent studios who don't have immediate access to shiny showcases or marketing teams — which brings us to the Indie Pitch. We can't cover every excellent new game here, but we can offer a curated slice of indie pie every now and then.
