Hey man, I've seen a fair amount of pitch documents over the past 2 years and I enjoy talking about this subject. Just a short feedback regarding your article: it says in the beginning that it would provide information on what investors are looking for and how devs can appeal to investors. From this angle I didn't find the article to be very informative. Maybe you can add more advice that you've picked up while you're there. Did David Gardner talk about what LVP look for in a game or team? Did Jason Della Rocca say what he looks for in a pitch? etc.

How do jobs in the gaming industry fair?
They sound like they're interesting, what are they like? Being a level designer seems like a nice job to have.
We also have a thread for that:

Passion and persistence will get you a looong way and those two maps look pretty cool! Welcome!

I like this picture. A good amount of work on all fronts and it still has a ways to go. But it reminds me of something I would see in WoW for some reason. lol
Needs more Murlocs.

Nice. Didn't know the first post gets updated sometimes without people replying to this topic
Unless I missed that as well ofc.It's more of a recent thing.
Keep the links coming, plenty of more space for more useful resources! -

I just cant tell if it was a dumb decision or not.
It was the first time btw, thats why its so damn confusing for me.
If you don't try, you'll never win. And even if you don't get the job, you'll learn, improve and get more comfortable with the process of applying in general. I don't think it was dumb at all!

Thanks, but I added it to the list in the first post already (the Gamasutra version)

I can see exclusive in-game content being a good incentive - especially if it's a multiplayer game.

That knowledge base is a great idea, seir! Most articles posted around here are tool-specific tutorials and we could use more design-focused best practices etc. It seems that there are only 2 articles available at the time of writing though? We should help to fill that wiki with content!
BTW. I've cleaned up the "LD Help Files" post and began to add new articles: The wiki seems to me like an even better idea tho

New around these parts? Don't be shy! Go ahead, say hi and tell us a few things about yourself and your projects here.

I remember that I used to feel so lucky to be working in this industry, I could make art all day and remember thinking that I should consider myself lucky because I could be stacking shelves at Tesco or whatever.. But these days I have actually been considering what I would do if I wasn't in the games industry.
What alternative career are you thinking of?

Point is there is no direction yet. It's just a copy paste of ut3 so far.
hm I don't remember playing such a map in UT3 but then again I haven't played it nearly as much as the previous UT's.

Quote from dux
It's just ut3 assets inside the unreal 4 engine. What's the point? Yeah yeah open development, great. But show us stuff when it's worth showing I say.
Point is that it's basically concept art in the engine to show what kind of art direction they are taking.

God dammit.
I'd love to work on a zombie game, but as a gamer I don't feel like we need more of those right now. I really don't wanna steal your thunder though, Puddy. I'm sure there will be plenty of gamers excited about this - plus the fans of the graphic novel.

Don't you dare and announce another zombie game...

Yesterday was fucking scary. The baby got her first two shots and she didn't respond well to them. Eventually she went out cold and we had to rush to the doctor. Luckily, she came out of it a couple of hours later and everything is fine now. But that nearly gave me a heart attack.
Oh crap. Would she have died if you hadn't taken her to the doc?

Well, it was fun while it lasted.
The account is suspended. Maybe it was a fake account?
It sounds like Activision's new (old) indie game publishing label. This is good news.
