Comment on Why are there so many successful Swedish gaming companies?

To add some low-budget examples, I did a tally [1] of where the 2013 Independent Games Festival finalists came from, and Sweden had four:

Göteborg: Hotline Miami, by Dennaton http://www.hotlinemiami.com/

Malmö: rymdkapsel, by grapefrukt http://rymdkapsel.com/

Malmö: Year Walk, by Simogo Games http://simogo.com/games/yearwalk/

Stockholm: Eleven, by Christoffer Hedborg http://elevenminutesofspace.com/

That's awesome. I had no idea Toronto represented so well in the IGDF, but I probably should. :)

Great find!
