It's all the rage

Blogs about making games, that is.

Taking a cue from names a lot bigger than myself, I'm starting a game development blog. With one title nearly officially under my belt, it must be legal to call myself a developer by now.

Why am I a sentimental gamer? Because over the past few years, I've gotten to the point where I barely even play many games anymore, yet I still call myself a gamer. It's becuase I like emotional games. The game that makes you cry. Sappy ones, if you will. Why? Well I'm a sappy guy.

But how many of those are there... jeez... in a way I'm still looking for it. In the end, I want to make it. Then make it again, but different. And again. I want to express things I feel so that other people can feel what I feel, be in my shoes. Then maybe they'll let me be in their shoes. And the world becomes a bigger, happier place. Excellent stuff.

Mostly, I'm just trying to get some thoughts out of my head that are always bouncing around and interfering with my real coursework.

Maybe I'll get feedback, which would be simply fan-freaking-tastic.

Hello, World. I'm Ben, aspiring game designer.
