Ako ste oduvek želeli da napravite svoju kompjutersku igru ali ste ubrzo odustali zbog prevelikih vremenskih i finansijskih zahteva, svako pročitajte iskustva Jay Barnson-a koji je za nedelju dana bez ikakvog budžeta uspeo da napravi solidnu RPG zanimaciju:

I knew it would be extremely difficult. But I accepted the challenge.

On top of that, I documented what I was doing as I worked, which I expected would be a little like going through an entire development cycle on fast-forward. I thought it might be interesting to game developers – or at least an entertaining record of how I fell on my face if I failed. The end result was a long, rambling, stream-of-consciousness record of my hourly activities. I’ve tried to edit it down to something a little less yawn-inducing here.

So here is how I created a game in a single week from scratch, with no budget. If you want to skip to the end and see what the final product looked like, in all it’s buggy, imperfectly-realized glory, you can download the Windows version of the game at: http://www.rampantgames.com/hackenslash.html.

Brutal RPG 3rd edition

This game is for serious players only! Hordes of Heart-Pounding, Heavy-Hitting, Hack-and-Slash action adventure await! This game is not for sissy players who don’t want their characters to die. In a BRUTAL game, your characters get killed all the time. How long can your characters stay alive?

Povrh svega:

BRUTAL is a free press game. This means the game is free for you to download, print, and share “freely” with your friends, but you may never make any profit off the BRUTAL game, or any of it’s supporting documents.

Brutalno dobro.

Vrhunski uradak koji se mora pogledati. Sve je tu: uzbuđeni glumci, oprema za snimanje low-res porno filma i neobuzdani uzvici aktera:

Yeah, let’s do it!

Iako je naziv ovog predavanja Teda Newarda Rethinking Enterpise, kvalitet informacija i zaključaka koji su izneseni je podjednako primenljiv na sve sfere ljudskog delovanja. Ted se potrudio da pronađe odgovor na pitanje: koliko smo zaista spremni za istraživanje i prihvatanje novog u svakodnevnim poslovnim aktivnostima?

Takođe, postavljanje ove prezentacije na blog predstavlja moj izraz zahvalnosti Parleys ekipi zbog implementiranja dugo očekivane mogućnosti embedovanje videa.
