Slides from Game Camp
What a fun event! Definitely one of the best I’ve been too, everyone was so friendly. They even got me a bottle of tequila and a lemon (ha ha) which I’ll be working on as we travel to Copenhagen today.
As promised, I’m posting my slides. PowerPoint 2007 and PDF format are available at my Googlepages site on my Publications page. Which reminds me, I really have to find a better host than Googlepages. Also have to migrate all that old stuff from my Drizzle site as well. So much to do, so little likelihood that I’ll get to it…
Anyway here are direct links to the files:
- Do What You Want [PowerPoint] [PDF]
- Optimizing the Development Pipeline [PowerPoint] [PDF]
I’m pretty happy with how the keynote went but the Development talk was a mess. I think the slides have some pretty good material in them, though. The couple of beers I had before the talk might have been a little too much. Same as writing code – one drink helps (lubricates the neurons), but two drinks can only hurt. Ah well.

Thank you for these slides. I’m really sad that I could not make it to the event after so much planning, but the rumors said it was great!

Hey, Scott! Thanks for the slides! I heard your keynote, but I missed the pipeline talk… kinda sucks, seeing as how I think your keynote was real good! I mean.. I’m a concept artist and all, and I know you said it was kinda from an engineer POV, but you examples were very clear, and the overall gist of it had nothing to do with programming specifically IMO… your points could easily be transferred to whatever one is inolved in
Was definately a cool event alltogether! The panel at the end of the day was interesting as well!
Hope that tequila didn’t end up going out the wrong way later on that night
Take care!

It seems the links to the file doesn’t work anymore (for Optimizing the Development Pipeline). Too bad !

Whooops… I need to fix that. Probably happened during the migration from an older blog site.
Check back after the weekend for the files.

Links fixed. I got myself a little WordPress plugin to catch this in the future too. Sorry about the trouble.
