Welcome to #990


ere we are again. Or, rather, here you are again, beside the seaside at another Develop Brighton. I presume the aircon is doing its job this year? Alas I won’t be there to experience those cool machine-assisted breezes, which is frustrating as there was so much I wanted to see. To make up for it, in this issue we managed to talk to Guerrilla Games and a number of others who’ll be taking part in the festivities, so I don’t feel too distant. Of course, trusty sidekick Vince Pavey has been dispatched to see all the things I’m unable to. Be sure to corner him for a chat. My guess is he’s by the ice cream truck. Again.
