Long time, die-hard gamer (esp. RPG, CRPG, and MMO) turned indie/hobbyist developer. Most of my professional coding experience has been outside of the game industry, my gaming attempts have all been hobbyist / self-funded, the latest is http://www.hurricanegames.com.

I decided to try out GGE primarily to try to get in touch other hobbyist / indie game developers, and also to see what it was all about after reading about it on the GameDev.net RSS feed.
