developers general great ground money proving require scene
I think the downloadable scene in general is really, really interesting for developers because it's low-risk. It doesn't require as much money as a triple-A title. And it's a great proving ground for new IPs, new concepts, new ideas - things that I think I, as a developer, find really attractive.

I started working at Airtight Games after I shipped 'Left 4 Dead 2' back in 2009.
