The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
I've been a long time PA reader (since 1999) and huge fan. I've been working in the games industry for the man for the past 7 years. I decided this year to break out on my own and start an Indie Games Company. We will be entering our game into the PAX 10 in the next week or so. I'm super stoked. I just got the website up and running. If you would like an early look you can go to
Note: It is pretty vanilla currently. It will getting a face lift after we finish our demo.
I'm going to be video Blogging our journey to PAX and we will be announcing details of our game shortly after we enter. I wanted to thank Penny Arcade for helping Indie developers. I know there are a lot of Indie games I wouldn't have played if I hadn't seen them mentioned here on PA (Oasis, Bookworm adventures, etc). Thank you PA and the community for giving us this chance to show off our game.
Sincerely,
Greg Chudecke
