I have recently become more open to the concept of blogs, at first they were very teen-journal type things I was not particularly fond of. However, seeing some game development blogs from this site I have decided to make one for the game I have been working on. My reasons are mainly for documentation while being able to display to others step by step my process. While I have gathered some on my own what makes a good game development blog, I am curious to hear others perspectives on:

  • Do you use the blog more for yourself or a showcase?
  • What do you focus on with your writings?
  • What is your main purpose? (id est for your own documentation, as promotion, et cetera)
  • What are you key points for a "successful" game development blog?


Anyways, just thought I'd ask for some people's opinions, if you have more to say that doesn't fall under those points please enlighten as they are just some of my preliminary idea/questions.

Thanks in advance,
ChaseNYC
