I'm not fond of either the GDC or IGF, though. Indie games have changed so much over the years.

I'm not saying they're worse. Just.. different. I dunno. Soulful, yes. Pretty, hell yeah. But not exactly what I'm looking for. GDC politics is a pet peeve of mine, though. The man who started the GDC was a genius, but now, it's this.. commercial.. thing. *sigh* It's a lot like the Olympics. Like modern football. Sports. In 30 years, we'll see indie games with advertisements slapped all over them. I suppose I wouldn't care by then.
Heh, anyway, Nifflas is an indie legend. Praised by non-klikers far more than klikers. I've seen Knytt Stories covered by a few game magazines, it's no surprise his stuff is on TV at all.

But if there WAS anything Click shown on Tv My guess is it would've been Tormi, The new Satan Sam, Cavestory, Knytt Stories, or an incredibly small chance- Eternal Daughter.

as in news publicity? or commercial advertising?
because ive seen stuff before usually when a tech show or gaming show of some sort does a piece on indie games. shows like xplay, aots, and other shows on the G4 network have coverage of almost all major expos and conferences so stuff is always showing up. i dont remember any click games in particular though.
edit: G4 is a pay channel now so i only get to see what i can in podcast form.
A to B Basset was on Total PC Gaming magazine's DVD the other day Tenton Ninja also had a review in the same magazine, for which I helped with a bit of the art.
