Hi everybody, first time poster here.
In the latest issue of res magazine [www.res.com] there is a call for more people to create new games. Almost the whole issue is dedicated to games, be it video, board or street games.
I found the articles very interesting. (Im sure res tells you where to find it in the website, but I buy it from a local comics store.) They told of the various stages and struggles of game production. Actually the call for new games creation has ultimately led me to here, where in the last 3 or 4 days I have learned alot of game theory by lurking in the message boards.
If you can, check out this months issue of res, or look at it online. It inspired me into what I think is going to be a huge new hobby for me.

There is my student work for my interactive media design. I am working on a more streamlined portfolio right now, but the game has taken a lot more of my time.
