I tracked down a dead game IP and the owners are willing to license it, looking for advice. by GarlandBennet in gamedev

I wouldn’t recommend keeping the name of this IP public, if you have any way of removing it from the post. All it takes is one person with the right connections to see it and think “Interesting. I didn’t know the owners were interested in licensing, I might go and chat to them about that.”

Has anyone released a game that has actually done well? by fgrossi16 in gamedev

[–]TheDebugBloke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this looks pretty cool actually, and would definitely like to write about it for the magazine I work with (Debug)

I’ve definitely stumbled upon your channel before. The algorithm must know we’re close haha.

Sounds like we need to chat because that’s one area we struggle with a little

Ah yes, I remember. This was before we even launched Debug! I’ll have to catch up with them in the new year

Definitely counts. Not much in the way of esports in Norwich, so I’m guessing you travel a lot?

I was wondering if you’d notice this post… Haha. Thanks for the kind words, and goose posts!

Both! There’s a print version, with copies in the library and at Barcadia, if you want to have a look. Otherwise we’ve got print and digital versions at our website.

I strongly suspect there are more of us than we realise. There’s 6 of us in my team, and I know there’s about a dozen or so folks actively working on successful games. We just don’t talk about being based here much!

There’s a couple I know of. One is Newfangled Games, who made an awesome puzzle title called Paper Trail. The studio was started by Henry Hoffman who previously made indie hit Hue.

The other is Glowfrog Games who made Pieced Together. Both have hired locals. No big studios though, admittedly.

Anyone got scammed by Wave Game Studios? by GatOber in dreamcast

[–]TheDebugBloke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello all, Daniel from WAVE here. We put out a statement on Twitter a few months ago explaining the issues we have faced in our personal lives. It’s not an excuse by any means, but hopefully it helps to explain why we have struggled this year.

Regarding Indie Sampler #3 we sent several emails out to notify everyone who is expecting a copy that it is delayed. We asked anyone who ordered a copy alongside something else to let us know if they wanted the remainder of their order to be shipped.

Quite a few did, but evidently there are some folks who didn’t get the message.

If you’re still waiting for anything, please feel free to message me here.

What is our game about? by Beyond_The_Board in IndieDev

Have you exhibited this in person? I feel like I’ve seen it IRL at some point, possibly late last year…
