Innersloth co-founder warns devs: 'there are some very bad deals out there'

Innersloth co-founder and programmer Forest Willard warned at SLICE 2026 that he has reviewed deals developers are signing and found "truly abysmal deals for games that do not deserve that." Willard, who also oversees the company's Outersloth fund, said he wouldn't blame developers for accepting such terms but can blame those offering them. He added that Outersloth can "never be enough" to fund all indie developers.
