Since Silksong’s suprise launch date reveal last week, I’ve noticed at least four games scrambling to move their release dates, and other ones like PEAK acknowledging “hey, guess you’ll be abandoning us in 2 weeks.” Everyone is moving out of the way; it’s an absolutely hype juggernaut of a game that a lot of people have been waiting for.

But Polygon raises an interesting point… is it fair for them to bellyflop into the release schedule with so little notice for other indie games trying to find their moment?
