SQUEAKYREAPER'S PROFILE

I'm SqueakyReaper, a programming student in for a rush-for-your-paper college. I'm less than enthusiastic about it, but for what it's worth I'm doing well in it. More or less, I'm a nobody. Dropped by after reading the Jayisgames review of Wine & Roses. Must say, that game was fantastic. I'll try to put together a proper review at some point.

The first thing I see about this community is its relative... emptyness, compared to its age. I'm out of the loop here, so can someone fill me in: What should I expect form this website? The amount of reviews on even the featured games seems rather low, though whether this is because reviews are underutilized, a new feature, or people don't have the motivation to do them is unknown to me. The game library is healthy and well stocked, but the summary sections for most seem to be "Hey, I released this" with an accompanying single blog post talking about it being in development. Does the community favor short term projects, and this is the most effective way of getting them out? Or is it just standard programmer behavior for a community of this type?

Skip to here to dodge wall: I look forward to talking to the people here. Pleased to meet you.
