First off, hey to all ya modders! I've been gone for a while, but I'm back in business.
Though I'm not here to share any more info about DrugWars or any other EuroTek Studios projects, I have some pretty sweet news for ya. I have already started to design a massive site designed specifically for independant game developers. It will function similiarly to moddb, except with more features (including an entire database devoted to game dev teams, rather than the games themselves, although there will also be a database of games). It will also have an awesome Flash-enhanced php layout slightly like phpnuke, but much more polished.
The first sample screenshots (generated in photoshop) of the Independant Game Development Network will be posted tomorrow.
If you have skills in either photoshop, flash, or php, gimme a buzz. I'm also going to try to hook up with some of the regulars at gamedev.net, to see if they can be "editors" for the newsletter and the tutorials that will show up on the site.
So, if everything turns out, IGDN will be like the content of gamedev.net and the functionality of moddb.com compiled into a very sleek interface, with some new features, and many resources, such as a list of game engines both for free, and for a price.
Expect the site this fall, if I get the help we need.

Sounds great! I have some PHP skills, but unfortunately not the time to commit to a project like this at the moment. Perhaps you could treat me as a "PHP consultant" of sorts, and drop me a line in my profile now and then if you'd like? :P
I don't know any php at the moment, so I will need to rely solely on programmers that I find. It'd be awesome if you could give us some pointers, and I'll be sure to stay in check with you, via your profile.
Thanks for offering!
