Hey guys,

I had a few questions and figured I'd jam them all into 1 email.

First, are we going to meet up next Thursday? Tabletop again?

Second, IGDA is doing a demo night at NewSchool on February 8. If you're
working on something and wanna do some show and tell, or just get
feedback then please let me know!

Third, can anyone recommend a good accountant? Ideally someone who's
familiar with freelancing and small (internet) businesses?

I've been using Bob Baker, who operates out of Shelter Island in
Point Loma, for over 10 years for my business and 13 years for
personal taxes - bobba...@gmail.com

What kinds of demos? I have a PSVita port of a Steam game that I
would like to get some controls feedback on.. I brought it once to an
indie meetup last year and got Tyler to play it (Snapshot), haven't
had time to update yet based on his feedback, but it would be awesome
to get more feedback. It was originally a keyboard/mouse-based
controller game, so translating it to a smooth touch experience has
been tricky.

I highly recommend Suzi Drennen (su...@drennencpa.com). She's been doing my taxes for 6-7 years and she's well acquainted with indie developers (she does several others). She's up in Encinitas, but we do everything online (I scan all the forms and she takes care of everything else).

Thank you guys for the accountant recommendations!

Jim, the demo night will be a mix of indie games and projects from the game jam. That’s what we did last time after the San Diego game jam. The turnout was about 20 or so people so you definitely ought to get a variety of feedback. Here’s some photos from the last one too.
