At the GDC, game design deity Sid Meier said something that caught my attention:
"People who play games are egomaniacs. It says on the box you get to control armies, discover new technology, and create entire civilizations. So, right away, you’re an egomaniac."
So, here's the challenge: can you make a game that isn't for egomaniacs? What really makes it different?

Seriously. Two podcast guest spots and both podcasts run long. Yeah, it's a coincidence.... ;)
Anyway, listen to me over at Polygamerous Podcast discuss some of the news of the past week and my thoughts on the industry, how to break in to the industry, etc.

After having my host switch me to a new server, seems I'm back online. Hooray!
Just in time for the GDC, at least.

I've been a bit slack about posting on here. Life's been busy, including a new bit of contract work. Nothing I can talk about right now, but you know I will when I can. :)
In the mean time, I was a guest on a Podcast View from the Top. Someone blathered on and made their podcast extra long, so they created two different shows for the podcast:

As usual, I'm not going to attend the GDC proper, but I should be in the area for a day or two. If you're interested in meeting up for whatever reason, drop me a line.
I also have a new bit of contract work going on next month, so exciting times in store!
