I am frequently contacted by video game developers asking me for help in a couple of areas, some just want some feedback, some are asking me for financial investment to make their game a reality.

Maybe your one of these people, or maybe you’d like some critique of your work?

I’m currently looking for 1 other developer to mentor and devote some real attention to, should this be you?

Recently I wrote an introduction to How To Improve Your Pitch for  your game and I thought it worth writing a little bit more ahead of E3 Expo 2010. I’ll follow on with a little more detail today.

I’ve seen my game pitches in my time, and I’ve made quite a few myself but I’m continually amazed and just what some people think they’re doing.  Think about all those poor saps who’ve been sent to the slaughter on “X Factor” for our amusement when they totally and utterly fail to deliver anything that a mother wouldn’t love.  Think about all those sorry ideas you’ve seen on Dragon’s Den that are just pitiful. But it doesn’t have to be this way…
