The Weblog Nota técnica - 2016-01-08 - Software libre para postproducción audiovisual Software libre para postproducción audiovisual (2) El 30 de noviembre de 2015 publiqué una nota acerca de software libre para postproducción audiovisual que ha tenido mucha más repercusión de la que podía imaginar cuando la escribí y por la que he recibido numerosos mensajes que agradezco. En esa nota incluí una lista, que no era exhaustiva ni pretendía serlo, de aplicaciones de software libre para postproducción audiovisual que considero especialmente destacables por algún motivo. El objetivo de esta segunda nota es complementar y mejorar aquella lista. En la nota anterior hablaba de suites ofimáticas (como LibreOffice), programas de retoque de imagen y creación gráfica tipo bitmap (GIMP y Krita) o vectorial (InkScape), aplicaciones de modelado y animación 3D (Blender), edición de vídeo (Cinelerra, KDEnlive y Shotcut), grabación y edición de audio (Audacity), y composición de imagen y efectos visuales (Natron); en ésta me referiré a otro tipo de aplicaciones.
Ten Tips for Becoming an Indie Game Developer Posted by Rampant Coyote on January 12, 2012 Post-Mortems on indie games always seem more interesting to me than post-mortems on big-studio games. It may be because they are just less conventional overall, or that the post-mortems I read of mainstream games usually conform to the Game Developer Magazine “5 things that went right / 5 things that went wrong” formula. I dunno. I really enjoyed Sophie Houlden’s post-mortem of Switft*Stitch, and the things that really hit home for me were the following comments:

April 10th, 2014 1:16 pm With over 3000 themes suggested by the community, how do we make that more manageable? With this! The 9 common mistakes every indie game studio should avoid Ichiro Lambe has learned a lot of hard lessons since he founded independent studio Dejobaan (AaaAAAAAaaaaA: A Reckless Disregard For Gravity) over twelve years ago. At a talk at the Indie Game Summit this week at GDC China, Lambe whittled these down to the nine common pitfalls that most indie studios are in danger of facing. Lambe notes, dryly, admitting that he's fallen into some of the same traps with his indie titles: "People see games like World Of Warcraft or Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare… and [believe] they can create an MMO in 9 months." Being overambitious with scoping is a classic indie failing.
A Simple System to Patch your Game Content This article explains why it’s important to have your own patching system, and describes how to implement a simple patching system modeled after the Quake3 file-based patching process. Why have your own patching system? For modern game developers, the most popular avenue to sell games is through one of many digital distribution services like Google Play, Steam, XBLA, and the Chrome Web Store. Besides marketing games to their users, these distribution services generally handle the lion’s share of transferring game content to customers on developers’ behalf. For games that need to update frequently, however, the content hosting process from such distribution services can be problematic. For example, some of the services can introduce significant costs in patch creation, or delays in issuing updated builds to users.
How to make a Facebook social game Hi and welcome back to my blog! This time I’m going to talk about the process of making a very basic social game as a Facebook app. It’s my hope that if you know how to make a Flash game and have a little bit of PHP/database experience by the end of the article you will be set to make your first Facebook app. This is a technical article covering the implementation of some of the core social game subsystems and not intended to be a discussion about moral justification of social game mechanics or even about how to design a social game – I’ll leave those aspects to game-designers and the media
