Are there indie shows actually made for adults? Genuinely asking cause I am not too familiar with them, but I gather there must be more shit then glitch right?

No, they're for teenagers and preteens that want to feel like they're watching something mature.

>>153713524
Not exactly new, but Afterworld might have what you're looking for. Plenty of lore, but it doesn't have bright colors or cater to tumblrites. (Though, it's supposedly being remade by Rebecca Sugar???)

KEK, I remember Superjail doing that exact joke with the twins.

I need an artsy mature indie show to get glitch-level popular right now. I'll make one myself if I have to

Probably not what you meant, but Kurzgesagt technically isn't designed for kids.

You shouldn't try to burn yourself out reaching that level of success period. Even the people who worked on those shows themselves didn't anticipate the success of their shows. Except maybe RubberRoss, and that's only because he reworked an old 2009 web cartoon to have a catgirl MC.

It also kurzgesucks now

Meh, I guess you're right

Anybody with the inclination to make an animated show are themselves probably dealing with arrested development so the kinds of things they want to make and the ways they would like to depict them mean the upper bounds of what you can expect to get is >>153713532 .

Independent animated media is run by kids who are still "kids" at heart but now have more time money and skills to make things so you will get FRIENDS-but-anthro-hijinks, or rehashes of Reboot and other child targeted media from decades past, or softcore/gore porn, etc all with a juvenile veneer.

Unironically what most adult audiences want out of adult targeted animated media is something like the Simpsons.

and depends on what you mean by "indie", maybe:
Salad Fingers
Metal Family
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared

I think a lot of the "adult" stories I like in animation work better as shorts or features. I get a sense of commitment, weight, and finality watching those that a TV show usually skimps out on.
>>
>>153713688
That's the spirit! Owen Fishback mostly does animation by himself, and has no studio to back him. If he can do it, you can!
>>
>>153713524
What do you mean by "for adults", what's your point of reference? What criteria needs to be met for an animation to be for adults specifically?

Do you mean porn?
>>
>>153713871
That's subjective so there can't be a criteria, but something that there is clearly no appeal for children, The Maxx, Heavy Metal, Ralph Baskhi shit, even comedy sitcoms like King of the Hill and Home Movies exist, there are a bunch of examples.
You can think of non-moe anime too if you're familiar with them.

I dunno, I loved The Maxx and Heavy Metal when I was a child.
