Open data

The community's indie games, studios, associations and events, free to reuse. Updated every week.

The first export is on its way: it's made every Monday.

Under the Open Database License (ODbL) 1.0: use it, change it and share it, crediting “Indie Collective community (https://community.indieco.xyz), its contributors”, and share what you build from the database under the same licence. Images and descriptions belong to their authors; images are linked, not included.

Not included: members, their emails and accounts, the change history, and deleted records. What you add to the site is shared under this licence.
