Mike Acton Advisory Board at Game Developer Magazine
Greater Los Angeles Area
I'm a regular speaker and active in the game development community. I've made it my personal mission to (1) further games in the mainstream and expand their cultural influence and our understanding of that; (2) champion the voices of individual game developers and help to make sure the right people are heard though work like #AltDevBlogADay; and (3) "fix" some of the power-dynamics and cultural baggage in our industry so that we keep advancing and can adapt well to the real pace of change.
