Game Developer magazine is a monthly periodical for the video game industry. Subscriptions can be purchased by anyone, but individual issues can be bought by the general public at some newstands. Many developers receive a subscription as part of a paid membership to IGDA.
The magazine contains articles on various game development subjects, such as programming, and art and sound creation. Monthly columns from industry veterans offer in depth discussion on a variety of topics. It has articles by notable game industry figures and reviews on game development related books, tools, and software packages. The magazine's most popular feature is probably its monthly "Post Mortem" column which discusses the recent development of a computer or video game with the top five each of "What Went Right" and "What Went Wrong." The back page "Soapbox" was also a popular feature, however, this feature has moved to Gamasutra. The final page of Game Developer magazine is now occupied by "Thousand Words," which highlights game art as a progression from concept art to final in-game renders.
Gamasutra, the sister publication web site of Game Developer, acts as an online resource for game developers, as well as a job posting board for employment in the game development field. Simoniker from Slashdot is now working on Gamasutra as the managing editor.
