Spain has been facing a severe economic depression for several years now, but that hasn't stopped its game developers from telling the stories they want to tell. According to the 2016 White Paper put together by the Spanish Association for the Game and Entertainment Software Development and Publishing Industry, there were almost 500 active video companies registered in Spain as of April. Their game industry has been active for over three decades and today's developers are bringing us games like Gods Will Be Watching, The Guest, Calendula, and Nubla.
Eduardo Cueto of Nubla development studio Gammera Nest (Spanish) says that the Spanish indie scene is currently stirring with new blood. "Many new graduates from lots of universities are entering the market and there are many events where we all meet. Everybody knows each other. Most of the teams are creating narrative games. I think it's one of the pillars and personalities of the Spanish indie scene, that we like to tell something."
When asked about the current state of indie game development in Spain, Cueto remarks on how Spain's economic depression has affected everything. "Many people with technical backgrounds were laid off from their jobs and tried to get into the games industry, be it by studying new degrees or creating small unpaid development groups. So now there are many indies struggling to create their first games, without funding, in an oversaturated market."

Although things are not so...
