    Yeah it looks good. I posted a clip on our site where Edmund McMillen (Super Meat Boy guy) talks about their online game Aether. I embedded the game too. I played it a while ago before watching that clip, so it's interesting to hear his explanation of it and then play it again.

    I think making games more personal/emotional is an interesting direction to go in. Maybe we normally think of games as an entertainment where you 'do things'. As opposed to an outlet for communicating something like with a song or a book.

    As a filmmaker and now a gamemaker I am interested on many levels.

    Looks like HBO is taking this and turning it into a half hour series.

    Yeh saw that on Facebook, looks like they were planning on making it into a comedy, i didn't really like the sound of it!

    Ok so turns out they've denied that rumour ... http://indiegames.com/2012/01/indie_game_the_movie_the_poten.html

    Just watched Indie Game: The Movie. It's not what I've expected. But it's definitely very emotional and inspiring.

    Awesome.. I was so excited about this when I first saw the trailer....

    Cool movie... man a lot of those guys were weird though. The guy who made Brade became a millionaire and he was depressed cause people didn't like the game for the reasons he wanted them to like it... wild

    Just watched it with one of the guys who did a case study on a game developer for the movie. Until we got kicked out of the student union for unscheduled movie viewing -- or something like that -- it was a great movie! And yeah, the developers profiled aren't exactly psychologically or emotionally healthy... fair warning.
  • andrewm2211andrewm2211 Member Posts: 341
    hah for sure!
    The craziest looking guy(artist on meatboy), whos artwork looks like a glimpse inside a axe murderers head, is actually the most normal.

    Maybe cause he has an outlet.

    Loved the film...obviously really interesting from a game makers perspective, but also a well made documentary either way. Nicely filmed, edited, sound the whole sha-bang.

    Found it fascinating with a sort of on going theme of depression throughout with fear of failure, fear of success, fear of finishing, fear of not finishing... still very inspiring, I'd love to buy my parents a house.

    oh @quantumsheep good to see you here..not been round much myself lately...still gamesalading (that's a word right?) , are you?...
