David Scott is a founding member of KIXEYE and Executive Producer of the runaway hit game, Backyard Monsters. With over eight million installs since it’s release last year, Backyard Monsters is among the most successful real-time strategy games ever on the Facebook platform. Hailed as “a social game for gamers who hate social games,” Backyard Monsters pushes the boundaries of what people consider social gaming. Prior to KIXEYE, Scott designed games, websites and videos for corporations such as Warner Brothers, GlaxoSmithKline and Wrigley.

Flash Game Tip #31

When you release a game, and this is doubly so when you release it on Facebook, that’s when the work begins. It wasn’t the work spent getting it out into alpha and beta and then releasing. It’s after you release a game you’ve got to buckle down and support it afterwards.

Flash Game Tip #55

Give Facebook a go. I wish that we could go back in time and get ourselves on Facebook just one year earlier. It’s getting tougher, and harder to grow virally every day.

Flash Game Tip #88

The top Flash developers recognize it’s in their interest to build a brand (aka Ninja Kiwi and their Bloons franchise). They recognize it’s not just about the programming, but that the art and sound play just as much a role. And they recognize it’s not just the case of making a game and putting it up on a portal and leaving it alone. You’ve got to support it afterwards.
