New Online Magazine for Indy Developers

 

Hi GDU members, 

 

Dolarmak here to tell you about a new project I'm starting on GDU to help people like us who are developing video games without the help of a company to back up resources or a huge staff to share responsibilities. I intend for this project to inform people about the different resources available for them, where and how to get them and tips on how to make it easier to develop the dream projects we all have in our hearts and minds.

 

The Magazine itself will be featured here on GDU, but will be advertised all over the internet for anyone who needs the help, in an effort to get the site to grow and make dreams come true.

 

This will also be a Spotlight for finished games because they deserve the recognition of their hard work. Demos may be reviewed, but I want the focus to be on finished work to prove that it not only is possible to do, but that they will be great.

 

Features

• In-depth look at current available game making engines.
• Information about resources available for game making engines (scripts, graphics, ext...)
• Reviews of finished games and interviews with their developers
• Tips on Writing, Scripting, and Design

 

Positions

 

We're looking for people to volunteer some time to help this project get up and running. Positions aren't set in stone and can change based on your willingness to help.

 

Interviewer

Interview a game developer about the successes and complications during the game making process.

 

Game Reviewer

Review a finished game and write an article about it.

 

General Writer

Write articles for the magazine based on the issue's topic. Ex. tips for gamers, writers or designers.

 

((If you have an idea for an article feel free to pitch it to me and we will see how it can be incorporated into the magazine.))

 

Graphic designer

Making the graphical layout or pictures associated with the games/articles for the magazine.

 

 

Issue No. 1 Topic

 

• RPG Maker

The topic for the first issue of the magazine will be RPG Maker. This will encompass all the RPG Makers (Xp, VX and VX Ace), the resources available and game reviews/interviews for finished RPG Maker games.

 

((I'll make a separate topic when the content for this issue has been decided.))
