Most of you DA people probably didn't know this unless you checked the d-pad blog, but I recently attended the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco to promote my indie group's XNA project: Owlboy. Well, that, get some assignments, meet people and add in some vacation and whatnot, so it might not be surprising that this account hasn't been that busy lately.
In case you're interested, I've done a complete coverage of the whole thing on the d-pad site. I had to take it in parts to make it easyer to handle, but the last entry has more words than I'll probably use for the rest of the year...
Memorable encounters were:
- Meeting other devs, indies and non indies (people basically)
- Collecting buisness cards like they were candy bars
- Seeing some famous people with ones own eyeballs
- Getting the most disghusting natchos I've ever seen in my life
- Discovering what people consider food
- Getting attacked by more people with sings than usual
If you're interested, here are the links:
Preparing for GDC
(Before I left. Swag shots)
Pre-GDC Status Report
(The trip from Norway to the US via the Netherlands. Flight photos and whatnot)
Sightseeing in San Francisco
(Just some pictures around the town. The trams and the sealions. You know, San Francisco stuff.)
IGF Summit Roundup
(The going ons at the summit. Me being a judgemental bastard about people's presentations)
The Expo Eloor and IGF Roundup
(Pretty long summary. I do a runthrough of the games I played, being a jerk about what someone else has put time and effort into)
Met a bunch of great people this year, so I'd love to do it again next year (if my wallet allows it...) I've actually been popping up in news videos like crazy lately. Almost feel like doing a segment on that alone... We'll see how far my ego goes on that one.
For now, It's back to work on Owlboy and whatever else comes this way. I think I've got some good things in store for it.
Pat yourself on the back if you managed to read the whole thing!
Until next time.
