Top reading of the day is the sum-up of 2D-boys / Polytron’s speech at the Indie Games Summit over at Offworld, about successful hints, to market your game effectively. Well, the thoughts are neat, but not revolutionary. Best figure to start the day comes from Kyle Gabler:
Valve’s Left 4 Dead marketing budget was $10 million, Spore’s $35 million (compared to its $50 million development budget) and Wii Fit’s was $40 million, a figure Gabler reckoned could buy 21,917 indie devs a burrito every day for a year.
I left your thoughts with that beautiful new trailer of the Fez-game from Polytron. Also note the beautiful music and colors!
Reminds me Nebulus :
