About
game poetry is about the art, business and science of game development. It is a collection of articles summarizing the experience and knowledge gained through several years of in-the-trenches game development. While Adobe’s Flash is our platform of choice, it is our goal to present our information in a way that can benefit all game developers, whatever their chosen platform might be. We have been able to achieve our success only through the valuable and selfless contributions of other developers and game poetry is our opportunity to return the favor.
Expect something fun and interesting each Friday afternoon.

Hey there, great site. I’ve enjoyed your articles so far, keep them coming!
I noticed your site doesn’t work in IE6 and IE7, I just wanted to make you aware of the situation, I’m sure it’s hindering some of your potential traffic!

Not at all. Please go ahead. And yes, I really should put together a contact page.

Howdy. You’ve got a great site here, I’m finding the articles very interesting, as well as practical.
I have one request though. -Please- can you put a cap on (or lower the cap dramatically for) the blossoms on the tree in your header? I tend to open a lot of tabs, and pages stay open for quite a while. Your site totally kills Firefox because of all the little blossoms being processed. It looks like a couple of hundred of them accumulate. The one core on my CPU sits on a constant 100% usage, and Firefox gets very sluggish.
