    Sup guys!

    I'm finishing a MBA on Project Management and i'm writing a scientific article about Project Management on Indie Game Development Projects, so I would like to ask you guys to help me by answering the bellow survey to understand how indie studios/teams/development companies manage their game development projects.

    I think a lot of indies already have a playable prototype, before they write a single word of documentation.

    @dogmachris, I think also. Many indies starts to develop for fun, this is why many of them giveup and things starts to became hard and isn't fun anymore.

    Most people here are solo, and also uneducated indies looking to just make games for fun ( nothing wrong with that! ), meaning they wouldn't know to make a paper prototype or HL / LL design before starting. You will not reach many people with that survey here.

    In general you are correct. Self reporting from this forum is likely to be a very biased sample.

    Fixing the grammar to be usable would also help increase reach.
