I should be happy to contribute but the thing is to have something to write :shock:
Rodain and the rest at Dev.Mag have been very good to us these last couple of issues. It would be good to have more contributions in the mag from us.
Actually to be honest, writing an article isn't all that hard to do. Sure you have to think of something to write about that would be interesting, but you can decide to go either technical or opinion based on your flavour of interest.
I find that I can write some fairly detailed stuff, because of my level of understanding of the community and in general some of my insight into the indie industry. It helps to be well read though...
For technical stuff, I find that to be considerably easier if you know the subject matter that you are covering. It helps to learn some new tricks and read up a bit more along the way, but if you stick to what you know and be honest about it, not too tough to do really.
This months deadline has passed already for contributions (Deadline is usually 14th of the month, or slighlt later if arranged up front.)
An article can be about anything. A postmortem of your game, a review of someone elses game (It would be nice to have PGD members reviewing each others games for the Mag).
Anyone is welcome to write in!
