Title: Three Indieviews
Post by: The Ivy on Fri 12/12/2008 01:27:20
Hey dudes. :)

A couple weeks ago I had the chance to interview three indie developers who were at the Montreal "MIGS" conference. The results are here:

#1: Petri Purho (Crayon Physics Deluxe) (http://www.livelyivy.com/?p=93)
#2: Alec Holowka (Aquaria) (http://www.livelyivy.com/?p=94)
#3: Jonathan Blow (Braid) (http://www.livelyivy.com/?p=95)

It was a fantastic experience for me, and I felt genuinely honoured that these three gentlemen took the time to answer my questions. And Jon Blow apparently likes text adventures. I am unsure how to end this, so I'll just steal Eric's thunder and say, "Hooray!"

Very very nice but, alas, quite short :(

Either way a huge thanks, as I imagine things must've been hectic up there :) Good job the Ivy!

Great job Ivy, there's some brilliant advice in that that I'll take to heart.

Oooo yes, Aquaria is addictive, and I loved to read them interviews...

Petri Purho & Alec Holowka & Jonathan Blow > The vast majority of AGSers ;D

So I doubt it...

Thanks for reading. :)

Yeah, they were a bit short, but unfortunately I'm still figuring out the ropes. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with these guys in the future sometime.

And Miez, that's a little harsh! I've got half a mind to interview you if you don't watch it! ;)

The only person to ever interview me was Zooty, which is why I love him. 

Some days I just feel like the Rodney Dangerfield of AGS, you know!

We should do a chain letter where everybody interviews the previous person on the list. Just in ten weeks, YOU can also have FIVE MILLION THOUSAND interviews!!!1!!!2
