About PixelWave

PixelWave is an indie game news aggregator. We collect publicly available information about indie games from community sources (Reddit, RSS feeds, Steam, itch.io), rewrite it into concise articles, and present it alongside hype rankings derived from community engagement metrics.

Content & attribution

Articles on PixelWave are based on publicly available information and are rewritten by our editorial pipeline. Each article links back to its original source. We do not claim ownership of the underlying facts or news reported by third-party sources.

Game cover images and metadata are sourced from platforms like Steam and IGDB, and remain the property of their respective owners. These are displayed under fair use for informational purposes.

If you believe any content on PixelWave infringes your copyright, please see our DMCA & Takedown page.

Hype rankings

Our hype scores are algorithmically generated from public community signals (upvotes, comments, mentions across multiple sources). They reflect community buzz, not editorial opinion or quality judgement. Rankings update automatically and may fluctuate.

Advertising

PixelWave offers banner advertising for indie game developers and publishers. Advertisers are responsible for the content of their ads. We reserve the right to reject or remove any advertisement at our discretion.

Disclaimer

Content is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. PixelWave is not responsible for the accuracy of information sourced from third parties. Game details, release dates, and developer information may become outdated.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
