Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    On my way to work and a rare monster and a tome of power spawn at the Starbucks on the corner.

    There was lots of talk about augmented reality, but not so much talk about augmented reality games. Double Fine Happy Action Theater is a good example of an augmented reality game that actually couldn't be done without the augmented reality aspect.

    They forgot to mention in the first part that the I Love Bees devs broke character for the guy in the hurricane (Ivan, specifically) to tell him "Dude, it's a hurricane. Put the phone down."

    Years ago when I watched this I thought, "This is something that could end up coming to pass." Looks like I wasn't wrong,

    Hisao? What's the word for when it feels in your heart that everything in the world is alright?

    Let's be realistic. If this becomes ubiquitous, the people who make it so will have corporate ties for more money.
