I'm not a solo-dev I may have called myself a solo-dev years ago, before Sorceress' Kickstarter but it has long since not been the case. Yes I make my games and I have authority about what goes into them but calling that "solo" is disrespecting the work other people put in them.

In fact it's very likely that your favorite solo-dev wasn't solo as well, you can always check the credits to make sure. We tend to fetishize the idea that a single person made a game, and it's a rare and praiseworthy endeavor, but please fact-check before throwing the tag around.

'Solo dev' is doing work that 'indie dev' doesn't. It's not claiming every asset was made alone. It's that one person held the decision and the risk.

Anyway thought I'd let you know, been having this conversation lately as it has been a common topic amongst my peers and my uncomfort with this topic has grown.
