I keep forgetting to try the Computer Game Passage.
It got lots of buzz a couple months back.
Here's a more recent article about [Jason Rohrer], the author, who lives in upper New York State with a Life Style of [Voluntary Simplicity]. We don't have a car, a fridge, or a plasma TV. I'm a full-time programmer, but I'm using a computer that is 11 years old.
Nov'2008 update: fresh [Esquire Mag] article by [Jason Fagone]. But even within the small yet growing dork vanguard of indie game-makers - a vanguard that includes Rohrer and [Rod Humble] and a guy called "Cactus" and [Ian Bogost], an associate professor of digital media at [Georgia Tech], and [Jonathan Blow], who pumped $180,000 of his life savings into Braid, a game about the nature of time and existence and quantum mechanics - Rohrer is "pretty fringe," according to Bogost. The other indie guys don't live in meadows. Plus his new "Between" game.
