IGF 2011 entrants in graphs
This year’s IGF 2011 entrants have been announced. The competition is fierce with an awesome variety of indiegames. Of course, we are rooting for our own game but we love that there are so many games of high quality and lots of fantastic and zany ideas.
The indiegame scene is truly vital and exciting, but also a global phenomenon. To put things in perspective we summarized from what countries and regions all the entrants come. Here are the top 10 countries with most entrants to the competition.
Fourth place ain’t half bad for Sweden! :) There is also a list of Swedish entrants at the end of this post.

Let’s compare entrants per region. Europe is not far behind the US and Canada, but there is a big gap to the other regions. This gap is most likely due to a cultural divide rather than a sign of lack of indiegames. The language barrier is a bummer.

Finally, let’s look at entrants per million people put things in proportion (and also because it is nice to see Sweden in first place sometimes). The US is still present although not as dominant. Two of our neighbor countries also made the list.
