Pilot Episode to In the Game, a new web series aimed at showing what it takes to be an indie start up in the Game Industry!

In 2002, brothers Trevor and Joshua Hughes (as well as their mother, Cyndi), lost everything when Trevor was diagnosed with severe kidney problems and their father left the scene (not wanting the bills of a sick child).

After 2.5 years of trying to make it in a normal life, they decided normal wasn't working and it was time to try crazy! Crazy meant taking their passion for game design and rocking the world, working hard to turn their home town of Great Falls, Montana into the epicenter of indie game development!

In this episode, see what went into making the brothers' StarHawk tribute level in LittleBigPlanet 2! You can queue it up at http://lbp.me/v/8rb1h3 (don't forget to queue up the Team KAIZEN developed Discovery Inc levels too at http://lbp.me/v/0s-btf !!).

Also, we show what went into the development of the Flash based proof of concept for Burst!, the indie rhythm game for indie musicians! Play Burst!'s proof of concept for FREE at www.teamkaizengames.com and let us know what you think!

Finally, we show some footage from Summer 2011 where Trevor conquered his fear of chainsaws with help from master chainsaw artist David Westberg, check out more of David's work at http://www.davidwestberg.com/store/
