What does this have to do with indies? Is it now a stereotype that indies have dyed hair and fake glasses?

Yes. If they're coming from the Bay Area or Seattle, it's most likely true.

If you've seen the film, holy jesus...there's just this one scene where they talk to four them, all of them have half cut or stylized bright pink hair, skinny as shit and pale as shit.

Its making fun of the new shitty indie movie that came out on steam that features nothing but dyed hair bay area hipsters and Zoe Quinn. I think one of its captions is "Rise of the indies"
Only worthwhile dev was the Stanley parable guy, even if his haircut is fucking horrible.
Oh yeah, not a SINGLE game features in the movie is used in the promotional art, in fact, they took indie games characters without permission like binding of isaac and cave story and just used it in marketing even though those people were never asked and arent part of the movie.

Also creators reason for this.
[I]Recently there was a "documentary" released called "Game Loading: Rise of the Indies" that "celebrated diversity" in the indie gaming scene. A big chunk of the indies represented were a cast of white people with bright colored hair (mostly pink). The assumption is that the irony was completely lost on them.
The fact of the matter, however, is that there are many independent video game developers out there of different races, creeds, ideas, and from different places all over the world. And many made very good games! None of those people were actually represented in this documentary.[/I]
What's the tune called?
There's something about these kinds of satires that usually come off as condescending as hell.
