It's serious time again for today's critical thought. I'm talking about what it means to be a game designer, and how many indie developers simply have it wrong.

Being in the Game Industry requires more than just being able to make a good game. You have to understand how to market yourself and your game. Just as there is art in the business, there is business in the art, and a lot of developers either don't understand that or choose to ignore it.
