Sony kills concept approval, makes moves to get indies onto PS4. Tonight in San Francisco, Sony announced another indie PlayStation 4 game: Zombie's Studios' Blacklight: Retribution.

Tell me about the changes you're making. We've just changed our whole concept submission process.

What an interesting year this has been… In November last year I left my full-time job because I wanted to take some time off from the exploitative environment of corporate-driven game development.
My plan was simple -- spend a year working on a game, living off my savings, recovering my "mojo" in the process. My first order of business was creating a simple UI system as I was not happy with the UI solutions present in the Unity engine at the time. After about 3 weeks of development, NGUI was born and released in early December. It was very simple at first -- exactly what I was aiming to create. It was a tool I made for myself -- for what I needed and nothing more. Fast forward a month -- NGUI was now earning me more than my previous job. The whole "piracy is good for business" thing gave me an idea of releasing a free version of NGUI for people who just wanted to try it out without having to pay for it upfront.
Now, some of you may think -- "that's insane! " Unity: what you’re objectively missing when using UnityScript instead than C# This argument came out yesterday.
Then Ruben super-kind-self-taught-vegan Müller asked me where to find a list of additional stuff in C#, compared to UnityScript. So I thought I might write about it, since when I jumped into Unity I initially went for UnityScript, and as such I know some of what’s missing. But wait! First, a disclaimer! Since there’s a lot of gossip in Unity’s forums about completely removing UnityScript, I have to say that I’m not against US. Disclaimer N.2: after posting about this on Unity Forums and inadvertently starting a flame war (even if I tried hard – and to no avail – to avoid it), I think I should point out that you don’t “need” all these additional features to develop a game. Anyway, here we go. Extension Methods Extension methods are awesome.
