We just found a great UI prototypng tool called Mockingbird. It's a very useful way to quickly build wireframes for game flow and basic UI layout.

It might be time to dust off your Unreal Engine 3 skills, because it's coming to Flash.  This is some pretty exciting news -

As a developer - and an artist, particularly - the opportunity to bring console-quality to something like Facebook is super exciting to me!

As I understand it, Unity's doing the same thing, too.

Hello everyone. My name is Brian Perry. I'm currently a Full Sail Masters of Science game design student and trying to start a Christian game studio.  I currently have about 6 people I'm trying to work with virtually from all over the world and its proving to be extremely difficult to lead.  Game Design Masters is pretty much an MBA for game producers.  I'm looking for other experienced Christian game developers out there that have virtual team managing experience that could help mentor me.  I'm learning some cool game production skills but I'm finding it really hard to translate to virtual team management.  It also wouldn't hurt to have a love for open source games either.
