We Want You!
MochiLand is a Flash Game developer community aimed at helping both green and veteran developers create better games. An integral part of the site are article submissions and the MochiLand blog where developers discuss important topics on game design techniques, theory, code, and industry events. It’s a place for you to stay informed, get in the dialogue, and stay dialed-in on new trends…or start your own!
