Overgrowth
918 Members | 52 In-Game | 159 Online | 0 In Group ChatOvergrowth takes place in the savage world of Lugaru where rabbits, wolves and other animals are forced to use paws, claws and medieval weaponry to engage each other in battle. Combining 3rd person adventure platforming with intricate melee combat, Overgrowth is a truly unique experience. Overgrowth also benefits from Wolfire's brand new Phoenix Engine which has been built from the ground up to allow the use of cutting edge graphics, animation, and physics. Add to these exciting features Overgrowth’s realistic artificial intelligence and streamlined control system and the result is an astoundingly immersive experience.

In September, we were asked to speak at GDC Austin about our policy of open development. It appears that our presentation was well-received because we've been asked to speak again at the main GDC (Game Developer Conference) in San Francisco!
San Francisco is our home base so it's convenient to be presenting here. Hopefully I can sneak in our HD video camera and get a recording set up for our YouTube channel. Also, it would be cool to meet up with other people flying into the city and show them the sights -- especially the awesome San Francisco disc golf course (we've been practicing).

This is quite an honor, and while I'll probably touch on many of the same points that were covered in my previous lecture, enough time has passed that there will be some new information as well.
It's still surprising to us that some indies are unwilling to give open development a try. The internet is such a noisy and crowded place that if you don't promote yourself early and often, you'll likely get lost in the crowd. My hope is that I can inspire other indie developers to strive for the attention they deserve.
The conference will be March 9th-13th and you should definitely let us know if you're going to be in the area. I haven't been assigned an official time slot yet but it should be up soon at our official listing here.
Do you have any ideas for additional topics that didn't get covered in the Austin presentation? The Austin PowerPoint slides are available here.
