Announcing Bodeville!

I'm happy to announce that Alexia Mandeville and I have formed a new game company named Bodeville!

Bodeville is the realization of our dream of making games with complete creative freedom. I firmly believe that the only way to get this freedom is by not taking anyone else's money. Too many times in the game industry, people have been promised creative control only to have it taken away when the executives or investors decide otherwise. By self-funding, we are beholden to nobody but ourselves (for better or worse!)

Without a big pile of cash, we are starting small. The two of us will try to make an entire game and manage the business at the same time. We'll cut as many corners as we can without sacrificing the vision and the experience. The games will be smaller in scope than those from a 10 or 100 person studio, but we hope the story and soul will still shine through.

We will post development updates on Bodeville's website and twitter page. My personal takes on games and business will be here. I look forward to sharing the experience with you!
