Jeff Tunnell on the Great Games Experiment
Jeff Tunnell (founder of Dynamix and Garage Games) speaks up on the Great Games Experiment in an interview.
Excerpt:
"The industry is finally starting to recognize the Indie scene. GarageGames has been working for this since 1999, and as new people come in the market, they act like they are the first to recognize the market. But, everybody that comes into the market makes it stronger, and I think Indies have a bright future. However, not everyone will make it. In fact, it will be extremely difficult to make a living making games, but it is possible and will become even more possible for people that understand the huge amount of work involved in making a career of making games."

Thanks for the invite, will definitely keep an eye on the site -- great potential as you mentionned !
From a user/gamer point of view, imho it's badly in need of a central hub.. Even just a single forum would help -- any idea if there's any discussion anywhere about the future plans for features and such ?
The GG bunch is great and I'm sure its just a matter of time before most of my wishlist for such a site gets there :)

You are welcome - feel free to add me to your friends list over there.
I am a little worried about how just spread out the different forums and information is. I mean, it's awesome that everyone is welcome to create a dozen groups if they want, but it does make things a little harder to plow through and find the "good stuff" for a new user. Some kind of centralized main forum or something acting as more of a news clearinghouse could be useful, but it might only serve to further bury the more niche groups.
I'd also like much better forums in the groups. Like having real topics for threads.
