They have been there, tried this, and done that. With published titles on many platforms and bruises, scratches and scars to prove their worth, indie developers are offered a point of contact – consider it a roadmap to the top of the mountain! At Indie Developer Consulting there is no such thing as dumb questions and everyone receives quality treatment whether the project is aimed at iPhone, PC or any of the popular gaming consoles.

We'll consider console games, computer games, web-based games, and mobile games (including iPhone apps), as well as consoles, controllers, and other systems. Work must have been created between January 1, 2009 and December 1, 2009. For full details on all the categories and to submit, please visit http://www.id-mag.com/2010ADR/.
