Mapping Out The Minus World

- Former Rockstar Vienna developer Jurie Horneman has done a quick post pointing out Minus World, "...a comic by Bill Mudron and Anne Moloney, about a game development company in Portland, Oregon."

Horneman notes: "The details about the games business are very accurate, and often hilarious (e.g. the genesis of Minus World)." Indeed, this is a really funny and smart comic about the game biz - witness the evolution story, which claims a history in unlicensed NES games and terrible cash-in Princess Di Flash games for the firm.

Usual caveats about not everybody having the same taste apply, but I think this DS Lite 'initiations' comic is totally cute, and a number of the others are pretty fun, too - have a wander around and see what you guys think, eh?
