E3 and More!

Posted by Starogre - June 2nd, 2009


Alright everyone so Glaiel submitted our game, Closure (the flash version) to IndieCade awhile back, and it was accepted! Hooray! IndieCade is a company that cares for Indie Game developers and showcases select games at different events and expos. This week, I will be at E3 for IndieCade, demo-ing Closure to whoever walks by the IndieCade 'booth' (more like big huge open area with huge computer monitors). I'll be showing off the Flash version as well as trying to advertise the new one. Unfortunately my dear friend Tyler can't make it, but since I've been in LA for about a week interning with my uncle for some animation stuff, it's the perfect oppurtunity! I'm learning Maya and After Effects at my uncle's company, so I'm switching gears back to video games for the time being. I already went to set up a bit at the convention center where E3 is located and it looks awesome so far. There was construction going on so no pictures were able to be taken, but I will be sure to snap a few later on.

I have a website that is in the works that you can all gawk at. (Very simple, somewhat artsy, gets the point across as a portfolio). http://www.whitneystudios.com/jon It will eventually be www.jonschubbe.com (how original huh). This is just part of the design. Hopefully it will be done in a timely manner because I have this website on my business cards :X . I also have a blog and twitter you guys should follow: Blog+ Twitter. Yes, I know twitter sucks, I can't get graphics to load on it correctly, but I only made it for networking so I can hopefully make it through college and the economy with business.

Also, make sure to keep checking up on the Closure Blog. There are a lot of thought processes that go into the making of a game, and we are putting what comes out of our brain straight onto there (except for the extraneous juices).

And don't forget, don't tune into G4 or my identity might possibly be revealed to Newgrounds.

PS. jmtb02 is gonna stop by to give me a high five. i haven't told him yet though
PSS. i forgot to get the high five but a handshake sufficed

E3 and More!

can't touch this!

i dont know

Well thats just a little bit of wonderful buddy!

just a pinch

my father's been to every E3

have him grab you a pass !!

my father is a drug counselor

hmmm i'm hoping he doesn't have to counsel himself

I'm just watching the press conferences online.

So far Nintendo's is the least boring one.

i'm not in that building so i don't see any of them till i get back to the tv and see them 3 hours late

Nintendo showcased a fucking pulse monitor, whats next, a Wii defibrillator?

Nintendo is a fuckin joke, and the conference was a snorefest.

i think it's a stage that will pass eventually. the whole thing about 'appealing to the casual gamer' thing...or appealing to old people....

Usually I don't care for E3 because all we get are reminders of games that we knew to have existed.

But Nintendo's conference kicked ass for two reasons:

One, Golden Sun 3.

Two...

seeing it all in person before anyone else is where the rush comes from most. and socializing with other people is always neat.
