The number of game pages created each day on indie platform itch.io has doubled over the past two months, itch.io says. It shared a chart of page creation over 90 days.

The figure counts new pages, which are not necessarily games released in that period. In a separate reply, itch.io said the number of downloads and purchases has not doubled.
