I'm Howard, and I lead an indie game studio in NYC called Muse Games. We are the team behind Guns of Icarus, a multiplayer airship combat game in a Steampunk post-apocalyptic world on Steam. We're current working on Guns of Icarus Alliance and Hamsterdam. We develop our games using the Unity game engine. My posts will focus on my experiences as an indie dev as well as business and market related topics.
