Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

I think the Deep Rock developers are owned by Embracer now, so I'm not sure if that counts as "indie" anymore, even if they're still a small (and previously somewhat home-grown) studio. But it's still a damn good game - ROCK AND STONE

They are, Ghost Ship Games.

DRG was never an indie, it was published by Coffee Stain Publishing, which is a subsidiary of Coffee Stain, which in turn is a subsidiary of Embracer.

Ghost Ship got fully acquired by Embracer in 2021, though their publishing deal with Coffee Stain started in 2017, before Embracer had even touched either company.
