"There is no exact widely-accepted definition of what constitutes an "indie game". However, generally indie games share certain commonalities. Indie games are developed by individuals, small teams, or small independent companies. And, typically, indie games are smaller than mainstream titles. Indie game developers are not financially backed by publishers and usually have little to no budget available, thereby generally relying on Internet digital distribution schemes."

Actually, I'm trying to stir up some thought-provoking discussions, that's all.
And sometimes I'm bored. Got a problem with that? :P
If I really wanted lengthy answers I'd go elsewhere, you're right. I'm not expecting that.

Bastion was developed independently, as far as I know and only got a publisher post production or near the end of it. I would definitely count it indie. There really isn't any strict definition of the term.

It was developed by a team of seven people, some of whom used to work for EA, and most (if not all, I'm not sure) of whom are experienced game designers. It was then published by Warner Bros. Interactive.
Is this an indie game?
And what is an indie game anyway?
