In this article I wanted to spend some time and give advice to people that have aspirations of being full time Indie game developers like me. What some people might not be aware of is that I am an ex-pro game developer. Of the really successful Indie game developers this seems to be a reoccurring trend.

The thoughts and opinions expressed are those of the writer and not Gamasutra or its parent company. It’s kind of incredible how much the gaming landscape has changed in just less than two years. Over a year ago I wrote about my experiences selling the Oil Blue (Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3), an indie game that was released on the PC back in 2010 and garnered some critical acclaim but less than stellar sales. Since then I’ve worked on two projects, one that was cancelled after more than a half a year’s work, and the second released last October called “Cook, Serve, Delicious!”

, a management game where you buy equipment and foods to fill your restaurant’s menu and cook for people during the business hours of 9am to 10pm.

The thoughts and opinions expressed are those of the writer and not Gamasutra or its parent company. In an effort to increase our sales numbers we are looking into all the different places that we can sell our game, Triangle Man. Before starting this research I had no idea that there were so many different online distribution channels for PC games. It has been really difficult to gather this info – there wasn’t a nice central location where I could find it all (though this blog post was amazingly helpful, and inspired mine). So, I thought it would be a pretty good idea to share this info and save you all some time. If you are able to fill in any of the “unknown” sections in this, it would be greatly appreciated. Someone also pointed out that most sites either pay quarterly or monthly – for those sites where I’ve written “no idea”, it’s probably a safe bet that they pay quarterly or monthly.

Kieron Gillen banged on about it . Rob Fearon put a sarcastic twist on it . Rodain Joubert 4-paged the sucker . Yet while each is giving it to the masses straight, it would appear that's just not straight enough. I'm one of the editors at Indiegames.com , a sister site of Gamasutra and one dedicated to covering all the latest independent gaming news.

Indie Distribution Platforms that are not Steam < Rat King Entertainment

Foreword - Sale Week Last week (March 10th to 18th) the annual 7-Day-Roguelike Challenge took place – the event for which Pitman was developed last year. That's why our yellow dwarf celebrated his birthday that week, and because the 7DRL Challenge always gets some attention, we decided to link it together to a sale. Our roguelike is available at four PC distribution platforms: Indievania, IndieCity, LittleIndie and Desura (+ the AppStore). So we reduced the price to $0.95 / €0.79 every day at one or two sites for three days each. In retrospect this sale was not only a good marketing campaign, but also very helpful to find out about the strengths and weaknesses of our four platforms. Indie Distribution So if the splendid Steam Store is denied to you or you like to put smaller titles (e.g. jam games) outside of your own website or offer your product indie-compatible – you hit the right spot here.

Level 16: Game Balance « Game Design Concepts. When veteran gamers or game designers are playing a game, if they are doing too well or too poorly, they will often comment on the game’s balance.

Level 16: Game Balance « Game Design Concepts

This word is important, but I fear it is often overused. Like the word “fun,” there are different kinds of balance, and understanding what game balance is and why it’s important is what we cover today. Why are we only covering this now and not earlier (like, say, at the start of the Design Project)? Games Aren't Art, They're Architecture. One year ago, Roger Ebert wrote a Chicago Sun Times article about how video games “are not and never will be art.”

Games Aren't Art, They're Architecture

Slightly less than a year ago, I myself wrote a blog post about how his assertion forced the gaming industry to take a long hard look at itself and try to figure out how video games fit into the vast, “fuzzy” concept of what “art” is. A year ago, that was a very timely and relevant debate. At the time, there was landscape that saw games learning how to express themselves as pieces of narrative media, becoming more socially acceptable pastimes and possessing academic discourse. The idea of establishing whether or not games should or should not, could or could not be enjoyed as art and what that meant for the industry was necessary. The thing is, people haven’t shut up about it since… I was of course on the side of games being an artistic medium.
