Location: Engineering 2 - 180 (The Simularium)
Hosted By Center for Games and Playable Media

John Peters, CEO of Team Krinoid, will walk through how Team Krinoid was able to make the transition from undergraduate game designers to owners of an independent games company, what the team did that helped them to get where they are, and some of the roadblocks that they have encountered and still face today as new independent developers.  John will also brush on the state of the games industry as a whole, the state of the independent games scene in relation to the commercial games industry, the state of mobile gaming, and how to decide whether working at a company on a commercial game or working on your own independent games is the best route to take for you.
