I'm leaving for GDC Monday evening. I'll probably be blogging from there, and I have some games in the hopper to post, but it's possible we won't get to our five for the week, for which I trust you'll forgive me.
I'll be speaking Tuesday afternoon, on a panel on pre-production at the Serious Games Summit, with Lynn Sullivan, Rebecca Stoeckle, and Sonny Kirkley. Just a short presentation from me, the title of which is "Prototype More, Suck Less," which I'll post here after I get back.
