Antair Games An independent game developer blog

Cliffski released Kudos 2 this week. It’s always exciting to see the launch of a product when you’ve been following it on the developer’s blog.

Dan Cook of the wonderful Lost Garden posted this awesome Rules of Productivity Presentation. It’s all cleanly laid out and illustrated, well balanced and researched. Lots of slides about hours per day, and the effects of overtime, crunch, etc.¬†

This new blog from Eric Ries from IMVU, Startup Lessons Learned, is packed with good articles, definitely worth watching.

I signed up for this new social network for people interested in the business of software, created by Neil Davidson. Neil runs the Business of Software conference. I still don’t really get social networks, but I’m not much of a social animal in the real world, so I guess they do accurately mirror my real world interactions. Yes, you’ll find me alone in the kitchen of Facebook for the rest of the night! It’s probably worth a look if you like that kind of thing though, and Neil’s uploading some cool videos from the last conference (like this one).

Nintendo announced some cool stuff. A new DS, a WiiWare service for the new DS, direct SD storage of WiiWare and Virtual Console games on the Wii (always thought this would be a better option for the Wii than releasing an overkill hard drive, good choice Nintendo). My favorite news of all:-

Also big news this week, the iPhone SDK NDA is to be dropped (except for unreleased features), expect a massive glut of “get rich with iPhone development” books to trigger a whole new gold rush any day now :).
