Re: Making something useful?

I always though it'd be interesting to aggregate twitter results into a graph based off keywords, like explosion or bomb, to detect potential events as people are tweeting them in certain regions. Like scraping twitter for all users with a location set in Egypt, during the protests for example, and ...

Re: When to become LLC - Game Dev

I established an LLC when I began a premium store in my ORPG. It was primarily to secure myself against whichever legal claim I thought could possibly come out of the fact I was now handling money, but also it was a safety net as I pay and work with many freelancers and independent developers. While...

Re: Eve Online

I've played Eve for a few years and I do agree it's not easy for new players to break into it. If you aren't joining up with friends who are already established, the scale of the world and the isolated feeling of not knowing anyone can get to you.

Hello there

I've been in the indie game scene for a few years, but had to slow down and take a break when my career started taking up more time. I've decided to get back into the swing of things and will probably move my old ORPG into an HTML5 engine both to learn and to get it back up and online cross-platform...
