It has been suggested that I should get myself involved in the halls of ModDB and having had a look around they were right, so here we go.
Hi, my names Leanne and I'm an indie game dev.
Technically I've always been an independent developer, I previously worked for a studio called Remode and now I work from home making games with my partner Alex Trowers.
We decided to take the plunge and make our own games back in 2013 when I was 5 months pregnant and couldn't find employment. Four months later Alex and I released our first game and had our first baby.
Glyph Quest came out Jan 2014 on iOS (and followed a month later onto Android). Our first foray into indie development (by which I mean for ourselves, by ourselves) was a very well received match 3 inspired puzzle RPG.
The process was a steep leaning curve. Alex and I were confident enough in the game, we loved it and everyone who got hands on with it loved it, what we had no experience with was how we would monetize the game, market the game and generally succeed. We learned a lot. And the hard way.
Well, now we're taking all that experience and making a follow up game. Super Glyph Quest is everything we wanted to get into GQ but just didn't have the time to implement. It's currently in the last few weeks of development, so I guess more blogging as we go!
