FEAR OF A SACK PLANET: BUY YOUR OWN LEFT 4 DEAD, CUSTOM SACKBOYS
So, after posting yesterday’s One Shot tribute to Harmonix staffer Milo Martinez’s Left 4 Dead Sackboys, Milo Himself showed up to let us know that those self-same-sacks were available for purchase via his site Sack-Planet.
Those, or any others from basic brown on up, apparently: Martinez has a handy customizable order sheet that’s something like Build-a-LittleBigBear, with a 2-3 week turnaround time, and optional tongues thrown in at no additional charge, which I think I’ll be ticking my way through in very short order.

INDIE DEVS TO THE READY: SUBMISSIONS OPEN FOR 2010 INDIE GAMES FESTIVAL
Organizers of the Independent Games Festival have announced that submissions are now open for 2010’s main and student showcases, with a deadline of November 1st and 15th, respectively. Finalists will be announced on January 4th and 11th of 2010, and, as usual, the IGF will be awarding some $50,000 in cash prizes spread across its visual art, audio, design, technical, ‘nuovo’ (formerly ‘innovation’), and audience categories, alongside the Seumas McNally grand prize.
On a personal note, I’ll be returning as a judge in both categories, alongside some excellent first-time compatriots, and am very much looking forward to spending time with (and subsequently exhaustively covering) everyone’s submissions.
Submit Your Game [IGF]
