Andy Moore will be joining us as next week to talk about the future of games, the games industry and the role of “indy developers”.

Andy is a programmer by trade (but a teacher at heart), and has helped game studios and other digital-media companies as a consultant, contractor, and specialist; focusing in the fields of rapid development, prototyping, data collection & analysis, and the “lean startup” pivot-style project management. He developed productivity-applications for ten years before going all-in on independent video game creation in 2008, opening his studio Radial Games. Within a year he produced the SteamBirds franchise, an award-winning free-to-play turn-based strategy game; and subsequently launched the critically acclaimed title Monster Loves You! on Steam. Currently, Andy is working on future games for the Steam and mobile platforms. His most recent game is (the quite  wonderful) ROCKETSROCKETSROCKETS (http://rocketsrocketsrockets.com)
