Hi, I’m Josh Sutphin, indie game developer and writer!
I was previously the lead designer at LightBox Interactive, creators of the 2012 PS3 shooter Starhawk, and before that I was a designer on Incognito Entertainment’s award-winning PS3 shooter Warhawk. I left the AAA games business in March 2013 to pursue an indie career.

Sorry I missed this I wish Gama would email me when people respond to my article. : r n r nA dead zone value of 1 should prevent all input 1 means 100 stick extension . Anything above 1 should be effectively meaningless. Since you 're still getting drift, that ...
I so hear ya. I recently tried out several leading F2P games. For the most part, I found the constant shouting and spamming -- not to mention the patronizing tone of most of the games -- extremely off-putting, and sometimes downright offensive. I 'm having a hard time understanding how ...
