Indie game ratings system re-launches; gorgeous new design!
![]() |
Hello, all! I’m happy to announce the launch of the new version of TIGRS: The Independent Game Rating System!
After much feedback from developers, publishers, and distributors, the system has been reworked and reformed to meet your needs! The system is now entirely flexible to match exactly what you want, from age and content ratings to the style of the rating box! In addition, the new system is being launched with a brand new website designed to make creating ratings easier than ever! You can get started rating your games right away:

From family friendly games to mature adult titles, it only takes a few minutes to make a beautiful content advisory for your game!
If there are any suggestions or rating themes you’d like to see, please post them here. The new system is still in soft-launch, so it’s ready to be moulded to your needs! Also, if you have problems with the rating generator, please let me know immediately. It has been tested on major Windows browsers, but not on Mac browsers.
If you are using the old rating system, it is strongly recommended you upgrade today! It only takes a few minutes and there is no uploading necessary!
You can visit the site’s homepage here: http://www.tigrs.org/
Your feedback is much appreciated!

I am all for this rating system’s success. I feel it will provide people with a sense of professionalism the indie scene previously lacked. That is, they lacked the IMAGE of professionalism, so this will help in that regard (not that they were actually unprofessional).
Plus the ESRB sucks… trust me, I know

Excellent idea! And their badges and buttons look cool.
