OK the most exciting thing outside of making games for a living, is that over the last month we have opened our office here in Aurora, Ohio. This is a big milestone for us as we have been clawing our way to getting here for such a long time, so I wanted to share the images of our first office with those working their way up also.

We have about 1/3 of the building right now, with room for about 6 employees. We have a option for another 300 square feet which if things continue to go well we may take up later this year.

Ouside the building:(yes that was the first of april and that is snow!!)



We have a couple of intern coming to spedn the summer with us, and my wife is wandering is this really the intern office :)



The previous tenant was kind enough to sell me most his furniture, unfortunately we had to move it:

Main office before:


Main office after:
(intern desk)


(Tim's desk)


(Sebastien's home away from home)


And last but not least I need a place to sit, and be able to close my door when the days are long.



The only pic i forgot to take was of the break room, which has a microwave, a few chairs, a 37 inch LCD and our Xbox 360 for those times when we just need to decompress.

Sorry there were so many images, but excitement here is overwhelming right now!!!!

I plan on making monthly posts again starting next month now that the last year of traveling all over has subsided. look forward to continuing to see the GG community grow and prosper.

Congrats!

Are you guys working on anything cool right now? :)

That is really awesome! MGT has come so far over the years and great things are ahead. :)

from garage developers to small office developers... awesome! MGT has always been an inspiring example in the indie scene.

Nice to see pictures of the office that I've been hearing a lot about. :)

Not a lot of snow for the first of April though. Granted, my perspective is somewhat skewed on that compared to most people. ;-)

Keith nothing is alot of snow to you :) for Tim who comes from Tennessee a foot of snow is probably nothing he has ever seen before :)

thanks for the kind words guys, feels just like yesterday when we started working on Lore with v12!! :)

Wow, nice place to hang your hat! Good work and congratulations on the new office.

Phil Carlisle   (May 01, 2007 at 22:54 GMT)
Bah, fulltime indie staff and office and whatnot. Not that I'm jealous!

Some day.. some day.

Congratulation's on your successful first full time year and here's to many more years to come :0-)

Just out of interest, regarding the office building, you guys aren't selling 'Farmer's insurance' on the side are you? :)

You have no idea how much easier conversations with people about project works and money get when they ask "Where are you located" and you can actually provide an answer without a bunch of caveats :)

Fantastic stuff.
