Magistri Ludi
I’m a juror for Indiecade, a roving festival which celebrates, promotes and rewards independent games and their designers, which means I’ve been horribly remiss in not publicising the call for submissions for their 2008 tour. If you’re a game-maker who isn’t funded by a major, ESA-member publisher you have until April 11th to check out Indiecade’s exceptionally hospitable eligibility criteria and get your game submitted. And if you’re not a game-maker, but you’ve spotted something of late which you think deserves to be paraded round the world and showered in glitter, then lose no time in firing off an email to its creators encouraging them to get involved. I’ll be doing just that to Kian, who made the epically satisfying You Have To Burn The Rope, which if you haven’t played, you should at once. Me? I’m off to watch a video.

[...] Margaret’s post just reminded me that I should mention this too. I’m also a juror for the 2008 indiecade festival, which came over to visit us at GameCity last year and will be returning this autumn. Indiecade 2008 is currently accepting submissions for the 2008 festival, but you need to hurry up – as the opportunity closes on April 11th.What excites me most about the indiecade project (other than the work featured in it) are the people running it. It’s so refreshing to see something of this nature being run wholly independently, and with a progressively diverse advisory board. They’re a little like GameCity, but with – y’know, governance and structure [...]
