Plan for Andy Schatz

by Andy Schatz · 09/23/2005 (1:46 pm) · 10 comments

Short plan that you really should give 1 star for its usefulness rating... I did!

-The peer pressure worked! I'll be at IGC. Staying a the Best Value Inn. Can't wait to meet many of you guys in person and see some of those games that I've read so much about...

-We've had a flurry of publisher interest this week for Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa. I hope to close something very soon. Man, once the ball starts rolling, it can roll very quickly.

-I had a fun little tussle with some associates over in the IGF bets? thread. I'd love to say that I'll get them back by beating them at DH:L at the LAN party but I've never actually played their game.

Just kidding. I have, but they'll certainly kick my ass :O

Anyways, see many of you at IGC...

Andy

Andy IGC is looking to be a good one, I hope to share a few beers with you and chat about game development irregardless if we see eye to eye on how we see that the community should be promoted. As such great choice on making the decision to come on out, IGC is definately way better than E3 and GDC.

Congratulations on submitting your game to IGC, every year we see more and more qualty Torque based entries and this years looks to really destroy last years stuff.

I believe for IGF 2006, at last known count, almost 10% of the entries were Torque based projects... Now there may be more "closet-torquers" that I don't know about. And that is just plain awesome for indie developers.

@LFoster - A few beers sounds good to me!

@JD - Don't worry, my game's not multiplayer, so I suspect I don't stand a chance! I'm rooting for ya'll.
