Good luck with the book. |
Yep, good post (and thanks Jake for mentioning this).
I remember printing & reading Steve's Dexterity articles, and got some inspiration to proceed more into gaming area (although it was pretty much "a fun hobby", not business) at the good ol' Dexterity times.
The times indeed have changed in the gaming world: the casual games, portals, digital distribution (for AAA games) and not to mention all new platforms...
...but now I'm getting too deep in to the gaming side of things.
It was interesting to see how long Steve was in the gaming side of things, after eventually "retiring" to the personal development area.
Thanks for the post.
