    • I love that your doing this, getting to know how successful indie devs got their start and how they are doing is a great inspiration to me on my path.

    • Hmmm! She sounds like a hottie! SHOUT OUT TO YA, AMANDA!

      Anyway, great show, but you could do without the “Ok, cool,” interjections every 5 seconds. It really brings down the quality of the interviews. It may help to study other interviewers – try watching some late night talk shows and observe the hosts’ technique.

      Alternatively, you could (really should) do some post-processing. You can edit out the interjections and silences, and you really need to turn up the volume!

      In my opinion, this is the barrier that is keeping you from reaching a critical mass. I even know a guy who would write you a jingle… 😉

    • Very interesting and inspiring story. I think that Amanda is bussines-wise developer opposed to “ego-wise” devs (those who make games to appeal to other programmers or rant about cloning).

    • Great show. This podcast has some very useful information. My only request would be greater detail in the show notes. Amanda mentioned some different game engines and it would be great to have links to those. Barring that, I look forward to more episodes. Great job. Thanks!
