T3D Magazine 1-2013
Information about the 1st Edition
I think this 1st Edition is a great entry point for more magazines. The 1st Edition was never meant to be a mind-blowing magazine full of fancy articles and ground-breaking news.There are some interesting articles in it, but most of it is pretty generic rewrites of blogs posted on GarageGames.com.
Generally I have made a lot of experimentation in this 1st Edition, and we will see how the reaction on each experiment is so I know what direction the next magazine should take.
I hope the 1st Edition will be sufficient to attract some people wanting to put some advertisements in the magazine, given the low price of advertisements. To that end I will be pulling all the strings I can to make the 2nd Edition be a little more interesting, with more exclusive articles.
For example, I will have a psychology student write an article about the human perception, exclusively for the T3D Magazine I hope to gather more articles like this, that are a little beyond the usual.
Thats all well and good but this is a T3D Magazine afterall
Right! And thats where you come in! I'd love to feature your T3D games, art, addons, tech etc..

Feedback
I'd love feedback on the magazine, please respond with whatever feedback you can give me.Also I do realize that some parts of the magazine don't look that 'great'. I'm a single guy.. A programmer at that, I find this art stuff very difficult, so bear with me! I do my best!
Suggestions are also very much welcome.
Game series
Would you like a stable channel to publish news about your progress in your game? Please write to me and you might get a regular spot in the magazine to publish news / screenshots about your game!Now to the juice:
The Magazine
Notice: I use Google Analytics which tracks a lot of information about the users, just a heads up if stuff like that concerns you.
Btw: I'm writing this blog at 2:23 pm so I'm probably forgetting to mention something, if I missed something or rambled somewhere let me know.

But I guess since I work for WLE it do shine a little off the WLE brand ;)
Also I actually just made pdf download available, it's easy to forget other peoples bandwidth etc when you are on a fiber 30/30 connection and with a strong PC.
So you can notice that there is a fourth button on the navigation bar which takes you to a download page, where you can download the magazine as a pdf (~4.8mb)
Edit: If you don't see it right away try doing a clean refresh (ctrl+F5 on chrome)
