  • "Indiepocalypse"?
    What Do We Mean When We Say "Indiepocalypse"? Jeff Vogel Spiderweb Software Who Am I and Why Am I Here? My name is Jeff Vogel. I started Spiderweb Software in 1994. We’re a tiny little indie game company based in Seattle. www.spiderwebsoftware.com Twitter: @spiderwebsoft Blog: http://jeff-vogel.blogspot.com/ We have written a bunch of low-budget fantasy role- playing games for Windows, Mac, and iPad… Key point: all of our games are very similar. Our games: Nethergate Nethergate: Resurrection Geneforge Exile: Escape From the Pit Geneforge 2 Exile 2: Crystal Souls Geneforge 3 Exile 3: Ruined World Geneforge 4: Rebellion Blades of Exile Geneforge 5: Overthrow Avernum Avadon: The Black Fortress Avernum 2 Avadon 2: The Corruption Avernum 3 Avernum: Escape From the Pit Avernum 4 Avernum 2: Crystal Souls Avernum 5 Avernum 6 Blades of Avernum (I’ve been around a while.) This brief talk is about the history of the Indie Glut (or Indie Boom & Bust) Or, as the rest of the world calls it, the Business Cycle. What I won’t call it: The Indie Bubble (a great clickbaity name, but not really accurate) Or, God Help Us, the Indiepocalypse (No. Nobody believes indie games are actually going away.) I will tell my story of the Indie Glut. I’ll use sales figures for 4 of my games (released 2010-2015) as illustration. A story of the Indie Boom that needs to be proven: It started around 2008. 1. AAA innovation not so great. 2. Games like Braid, World of Goo, and Castle Crashers prove indies are good.

  • Six Ways to Write More Comprehensible Code
    Six ways to write more comprehensible code http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-clear-code/index.ht... Six ways to write more comprehensible code How to keep your code from destroying you Level: Introductory Jeff Vogel ([email protected]), President, Spiderweb Software 29 May 2007 As a developer, time is your most valuable resource. These six tips on how to write maintainable code are guaranteed to save you time and frustration: one minute spent writing comments can save you an hour of anguish. I learned to write, clear, maintainable code the hard way. For the last twelve years, I've made my living writing computer games and selling them over the Net using the marketing technique that was once charmingly known as shareware. What this means is that I start with a blank screen, start coding, and, a few tens of thousands of lines of code later, I have something to sell. This means that, if I make a stinky mess, I'm doing it in my own nest. When I'm chasing down a bug at 3 a.m., staring at a nightmare cloud of spaghetti code, and I say, "Dear God, what idiot child of married cousins wrote this garbage?", the answer to that question is "Me." So I have been well rewarded by learning about good, sane programming techniques. Some of these practices are described in this article. Many skilled, experienced, morally upright coders will always know some of this stuff by heart. All these people will get from this article is a chance to bathe in my delightful prose style and remember how horrible life was before they got the clean code religion.

  • Independent Games (1997–Present)
    Chapter 10 Independent Games (1997–Present) Copyrighted Materials The Scratchware Manifesto and Dimensions of “Indie” - In the summer of 2000, a group of anonymousCRC game designers published a three-part essay, The Scratchware Manifesto, on the abandonware archive site, Home of the Underdogs . The declaration delivered a scathing critique of practices in the digital game industry: it criticized publishersPress who chose game genres with safe investment returns over innovative ones, who made demands on workers with long periods of crunch time, and who shipped buggy games that resulted from rushed production schedules . The essay called for an alter- native type of game described as “scratchware ”. It was to be accessible, high quality, replayable, short, and created by teams of three or less individuals with multiple skill sets . Scratchware games were to focus on 2D art, which allowed for economical and rapid development while providing the opportunity to explore untapped aesthetic avenues . Key to scratchware games would be their cost and method of distribution: $25 or less and deliverable without retailers, via the Internet . Each element was intended to break the practices of the game industry by producing easy-to-acquire games with greater novelty in design, at lower cost to players . In short, it was a rallying cry for the creation of inde- pendent games . The growth of independent games in the mid to late 2000s appeared, on the surface, to have answered the manifesto’s call . Many had operated at 215 216 History of Digital Games lower budgets and with smaller development teams; pixel art, 2D graph- ics, and other flat styles did allow for efficient development times and a critique of photorealistic 3D imagery; many independent game develop- ers were able to exercise creative control, retain ownership, and develop ideas that large developers were not interested in pursuing .
