Indie Game Jam 2004 Recounted
scishop writes "While most of the gaming world has been focused on the dazzling smoke and mirrors special effects of E3, Gamasutra has published an interesting article on a different game convention: Indie Game Jam '04 where two dozen game developers spent four days creating a variety of games built around the same engine in an effort to encourage innovation. The results included apps centered around boxing, yoga and flaming hamsters." Our earlier story over at Slashdot Games has more links and information.
It could be interesting if all the game developers in the US picked/created a cross-platform 3D engine to standardize on. Then maybe they could concentrate more effort on playability and game innovation and less on flipping bits.
LOL, is that a communication between two terrorists al-qaeda cells?
um. i suggest you get a ps2->usb adapter and a ps2 controller...most serious gamers have some sort of controller like that. If you loathe sony, you can take any xbox controller and convert it to use it on pc usb.
