Yesterday, we briefly posted about project Boob Jam, a coding marathon event and ongoing project to address breasts in video game culture. Since then, we spoke with project creator Jenn Frank who wanted to clear up some of misconceptions as well as errors and misinformation in the recent BBC article we used as reference.
"The benefits to making smaller games with budgets of $1-2 million compared to $40-50 million are huge," said Schafer. "With a triple-A game, when there’s so much money invested, the risks for a publisher are huge. The more money you ask for from an investor, the more that you have to give up. No matter where in the world your publisher is based, they will remove features that could potentially alienate any users when the stakes are so high." "This can be deeply frustrating if you are interested in making games that aren’t necessarily universal but are more daring or experimental," he added.
Florida created a film-and-entertainment incentive program in 2003, offering relatively modest cash rebates to various productions. The biggest recipients were typically large-budget television shows such as "Burn Notice" and "The Glades," or feature films such as "Marley and Me."
Video-game companies were initially excluded from the program entirely, because Florida officials said the state did not want to provide incentives for projects likely to occur even without government help.
