A chum of mine, FreakyZoid, has set up a new site called GameDevBlogs.net; a blog directory for game developers. The intention of the site is to “help game developers be heard”, those unsung gaming heroes you’ve never heard of!
As he says, “believe it or not, these guys spend a lot of time making the games you love, and they have a lot of knowledge to share.” Now, I don’t know if I could make such claims of myself, but it’s definitely a noble idea – I’ve long believed that games developers (and not just the famous, high-ups that you’ve probably already know about) should get a bit more recognition for the hard work they put in to make the games that you play!
It’s still early days (you can already find me on the Artists page) but the site needs more blogs and more input! The more the better! If you’re involved in games development and you’ve got a blog, you should get yourself over there and submit your site for listing. If you don’t have a blog, maybe you should consider getting one? GameDevBlogs.net also has a presence on Twitter, so get going!
If nothing else, it should ensure I keep my blog more up-to-date! ;)
