Inside Game Design

Just a quick note… I was digging through archives of folders here and came across the presentations from the Inside Game Design(ers) gigs last year. There were three in all - but here for your viewing pleasure is the one from the ICA gig which featured Alex and Siobhan from Media Molecule as special guests. It’s nearly 12mb, but kind of worth it for the detail in the images.

Not bought the book yet?

You really should…. It’s practically Christmas already.

I hadn’t even seen this one. My new best friend Matt Vella gives Inside Game Design four and a half-stars worth of review on the BusinessWeek site.
So says handsome, critically-sound Matt:“The Good: Useful and informative for insiders and casual readers alike. The Bad: Almost none; could use a little more analysis here and there. The Bottom Line: A brilliant romp through some of the industry’s most innovative shops. ”

Blimey.
Charismatic, confident Matt has just introduced a new area on the BusinessWeek site, the BusinessWeek Arcade - which is a collection of free indie-games. Great to see these kinds of titles getting some exposure on a site like this. Matt is brilliant. I just wish he’d spell my name right.

A nice review at the Daily Yomiuri of Inside Game Design. After saying he likes the book, Christoph Mark goes on to accuse game designers of being, “… people with a social consciousness, solid work ethic and a desire to improve their products and life in general.”
