Utah Indie Meet and Stuff
Last night (Thursday) was the Utah Independent Game Developer's meet at the Ninjabee offices. We're trying to do it quarterly - the next one will be in January, we think. Anyway, it was really good meeting with everyone again. I felt kind of embarassed that there was so little of my game to show off and solicit feedback on. By January, I hope to have a lot more to show.
I am on vacation from work for a week as of tomorrow. Most of the time will be spent down in Cedar City, but I'm taking my laptop with me so I can continue game development work while there. We've been in massive crunch at work lately, so it's been very hard to do any kind of game dev work on the side.
Right now, I'm dealing with one of those really annoying bugs that shows up only in the retail build, but is completely fine in the debug build. One of my professors in college used to refer to these as "Heisenbugs," so I've picked it up. The very effort of trying to observe the bug causes it to change and move.

What do you think of having a get-together in Park City with the Slamdance game competitors? (I'll be there for the film festival -- not in the game competition myself.)
It might be a challenge finding space, but maybe if we coordinate this with Slamdance they can provide a room.

I dunno - I thought about Slamdance last year, but this year I'd have nothing to show :( It's a great venue for indie developers in Utah though - if you can arrange something, I'll do what I can to help spread the word. Keep me posted!
We would be happy to try and work something out with you guys. I can't make any guarantees, but we would love to see any Utah Indie Game Developers that can make it com e by the competition room. Our Games lounge is open to the public and features our finalists, but also has charis for lounging, panels on indie game development and presentations by the finalists on their games. Drop me a line and we will try to work somehting out. (contact info at website)
