This month’s Boston Post Mortem is Tuesday, December 10th at 7pm at The Skellig in Waltham.
Our presentation this month will be by Lulu LaMer, who will be giving a talk entitled: “SpecOps: The Line and the mainstream’s disappearing middle.”
This post-mortem of SpecOps The Line will focus on what was successful and not successful during the game’s development, and will also try to address the disappearance of interesting middle-tier titles from game publishers’ lineups.
Lulu LaMer is a freelance game producer and project management consultant. Past titles include SpecOps: The Line, Borderlands, Tomb Raider: Legend, System Shock 2, and the Thief series. She believes in the dream of innovation on time and on budget.

Presentation:
Our presentation this month will be by Eitan Glinert of Fire Hose Games, who will be giving a talk about his studio:
“My talk will take a look at how Fire Hose is evolving to keep pace with a rapidly changing industry. I’ll start by talking through our early 2013 launch of Go Home Dinosaurs and what was hot/not about that game.
Then it gets really exciting! I’ll jump into how we adapted Fire Hose to stay competitive. This will include our shift to smaller 2 person teams, our embracing of a “checkpoint” system to sift out the best game ideas quickly, and our methodology for making games.
Finally I’ll get into where we’re going next – raising investment capital, growing the company, and of course showing off some of our new games!”
See you on there!
