TX Indie Game Con

Well, Donald beat me to it, but this is my post about the Texas Independent Gaming Conference that I attended yesterday. It's actually still going on today, but unfortunately I have to work today. Donald pretty much covered the highlights, and all in all it was a very enjoyable experience. I will refrain from making too many comments about one of the speakers that I listened to yesterday, except to say that his presentation was utterly horrible, and I'm not sure, but I think he might be a hack. If it adds to my critique, I should say that about half the audience walked out during the presentation. Aside from that talk, though, the conference was good.

Rock on, Texas indie game scene.

Well, I wouldn't want to offend anyone who might know/respect this guy, but I will say that he is the author of "Game Design Foundations". Reviews of this book on Amazon also indicate that some readers have witnessed some of his other presentations and come out with similar opinions.
