    “Greg Costikyan described his vision of the indie game scene as “Still a pimple on the game industry’s ass,” Eric Zimmerman, Introversion’s Mark Morris, and Derek Yu of Bit Blot would not simply let that go…”

    “…I would say that independent games is one cheek, while [mainstream] is the other,” said Yu. “We need to have the games industry put on the right pants…we’re starting to notice that other cheek and how hard it is to walk without that other cheek.”

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Derek you amaze me in every freakin way possible. I wish there was a video of this conference, I would have liked to see it :(.

    If you’d have told me yesterday that a man was going to explain the importance of the independent games industry through way of Metaphorical Asses, I’d have looked at you in bemusement and stepped away a few dozen feet…

    …and yet Derek manages to even pull THAT off? He’s unstoppable! First bonus ‘pissing on brain’ rounds, now asstacular analogies. Someone design a T-shirt out of this, STAT!

    Derek, have my babies. You totally rock for that. There’s only one problem… we’re still asses.

    Waitasec… Given our posting and forum activity we ARE asses. Stunning and prophetic Derek. Stunning and prophetic.
