for those of you who dont know me the names Nick Smith. I live in Portland, Oregon. im a student and i write indie game…
I have co-wrote/created: classroom deathmatch and sea dracula with Jake Richmond.
I also have a few solo projects that are still a work in progress: project C.H.A.I.R., Fiction 1942 and ghost town lyena are just a few of them…
as a indie game designer i know what its like to be overshadowed by a larger more impressive designer. as a single person there isn’t much that can be done to prevent this, but as a community we indie game designers/players i.e. Jake Richmond, Matt schlotte, joe McDonald, kirk Mitchell, John Harper, Travis Brown, Clinton R. Nixon, Tony Dowler, Vincent Baker, Jason Morningstar and so, so many more are rising up in the gaming community and taking the credit and role we rightfully deserve.
the focus of this blog will be on my adventures as a indie designer, going to cons, playtesting games, hanging out with other designers, really just having fun and watching are community grow as are role playing games and story games become more and more mainstream and the “next big thing”
