The technological arms race rages on in the gaming industry, sometimes at the expense of great gameplay. This discussion, while not ruling out great technology, focuses on how to get to the "fun" in game development. "One of the toughest aspects of indie games development is how to keep up with the big budgets and resources that AAA publishers have," says James Hills of CyPR Media, "This topic will help indies understand some of the ways that they can navigate this challenge."
Future Roundtable Topics being considered are Comparing Low Cost Development Tools, Finding a Publisher - Do I Need an Agent?, Developing & Completing Innovative Games, From Here to There: Developing a Professional Portfolio and other topics nominated by developers.
