You'll be seeing a lot more of these throughout the end of the decade, fam -> Black Game DevelopersAdam Hines didn't just write the game. He also co-founded the studio that made the game.
Black-Owned game studios
Lot of us are self-taught devs who got sick of cacs trying to suggest that other cacs make games for us when we can do it ourselves.
Yes, I know. We have a thread about Black game developers but I haven't updated it in a while: Black Game Developers
The best place to find other Black game developers is the Black Game Devs Twitter account: Black Game Devs (@blackgamedev) on Twitter
There's also the Blacks in Gaming Facebook page: Blacks in Gaming public group | Facebook
Oh lol, my tweets are in that thread.
Mind if I give it a bump to talk about the new project?

Yeah, people here like it when developers come in and talk about their work. Or you can make your own thread.

The game is out for iPad and iPhone now
finished it today. cool story with a mix of sci-fi and teenage angst. I'm probably gonna play through again to see some stuff I missed. there was some stuff I figured out towards the end, but I really didn't feel like backtracking through the whole game to find the rest
game has a cool art style that kinda looks like watercolor. music was cool too. overall it was a pretty relaxing experience, but the story does get kinda crazy
edit: I also liked it cause the sci-fi was actually sci-fi, and not a fake out like Gone Home and Firewatch

Everything is a matter of opinion tho... was it worth $10 to you? I take your opinions with more grains of salt than others

I'm liking Oxenfree more though. I didn't realize it has a NG+ thing going on. second playthrough has already been interesting

What's NG+... And I guess I'll try this game out later today. I bought it,and would hate for it to be a free game before I touch it
