Introduce yourself

Here's a thread for introductions so we can all find out a little about each other -- if you'd like to let people know who you are and what brings you to Puzzle Clubhouse, this is the place!

I'll start -- I'm Laura and I'm the project director / design lead on the Puzzle Clubhouse development team. I got into game design via a love of interactive museum exhibits... I like taking concepts and finding ways to explore them hands-on. I'm really excited for Puzzle Clubhouse to get going in earnest -- I figure our tight production schedule will keep us focused, and your input and feedback will keep us on our toes. I look forward to making games together!

Hello! I'm super-excited to see how Puzzle Clubhouse develops :) I've done a bit of game design myself and the idea of working with community-created concepts and content is both exciting and daunting. My own designs tend towards highly complex stuff like 4x games and such. I'm hoping that getting a chance to participate here will give me a much better sense of how to think up simpler, more elegant designs. Like Gumtrix, which made me late to work this morning :-P

The beta voting session was a ton of fun and I can't wait until more of those are up.

Jesse

I'm Jesse, one of the developers at SG. Glad to hear you like Gumtrix! There's nothing like a monthly deadline to force you to focus on simple designs!

I'm Lisa, I'm a game designer at Insomniac Games.  I got to work on initial concepts for Puzzle Clubhouse during an internship I had at Schell Games when I was in grad school, so I've been super excited to see it come to fruition!

Bonnie

Hello Puzzle Pals!

I'm Bonnie, sound-designer and music-maker at Schell Games. It's been very exciting watching PCH come to fruition. Episode 0 was a blast to work on, I can't wait to get Episode 1 out there and see what we can collectively create next!

Pony

This seems like a nifty site- Just arrived via a free code I got at PAX last weekend, and I love this concept. Thanks for putting it together! :)

Jesse

Welcome, Pony -- thanks for joining us!

I'm Andrew. An amateur board-game designer who picked-up Jesse's book "The Art of Game Design: A book of lenses" on the advice of a friend, and I'm very excited about the collaborative concept for PCH, and to see how the game designs here evolve. 

Chez

Hey all! I'm Chez, and I'm the animator for PCH. Really looking forward to all the goofy fun ideas you guys will make me have to bring to life!

Jesse

Hi William -- glad to have you here!

Werehare

Wow. Game designers, developers and musicians. Oh my!

I feel like such a schlub! :P

I'm just a puzzle-lovin' nerd. Happy to be in such good company! :D

Jesse

Don't worry Werehare -- we all think you're the coolest!

Hello all, my name is Chris

I was given the puzzle code from pax and wanted to see how I could be a part of this. I am an artist for a webcomic myself and currently going back to school for a game design degree.

I would love to help out here from what I can tell seems like a great group of people.

Jesse

Hi, Chris! Welcome to PCH! Hopefully, we can see some of your artwork soon!
