#3One of the contributors is creating a video game from scratch in a series of videos.
He just did day 60 today. It's probably going to take at least a year. It's quite educational to start from scratch without any libraries.

#5Very stoked on The Witness but also Firewatch: www.firewatchgame.com
These are the kind of games I can get down with, a good slow ambiance based puzzle game—had enough of RTS and FPS for the time being.

#10I always sort of wonder about stories like this, where fairly established game-devs have to rely on Kickstarter, or on their own funds to develop games.
Seems like someone like Blow should be able to attract some investors.
