    Hi Gang,

    So I finally threw together a DEV team and we're working on 2 game concepts at the moment. I've worked in game development in the past but as far as this goes, I'm completely flying solo here.

    I'm really excited at the prospect of developing out these games. The sole purpose is not to make money, but to make great games, money is a nice side effect if they're popular.

    Anyway, this is going to run in parallel to my wifes t-shirt design business, so I anticipate some really good promo's when these games are released involving winning swag and whatnot.

    I know there are a lot of really awesome devs on the forums, I private message with some of you on occasion. I'm wondering if you have any tips for me since I'm just starting out with this. Or even if you want to share some special experiences you've had while doing your own thing. Please share!

    I'd love to share my game ideas, but I really would rather get some marketing stuff ready before I announce anything.

    At any rate, this is my "hello world" out to all of you.

    Thanks for listening

    - Dog

    Well, just as I'm getting ready to register with apple and all this I get hired on by another team which already has some apps out. Looks like I'll be developing everything under that umbrella. I'll let you guys know when the games are coming though.

    They're soon releasing their first app "Super Dreidel".

    I didn't work on that one, but we have 2 fresh concepts that I am working on and I have my own concepts that I'm going to present to them.

    We'll see how things go :)

    I think i'm going to stop doing reviews, as I have no time with development and whatnot.

    ALthough, I will review pinball ride when it comes out, because it's badass!
