(http://www.cactus-soft.co.nr/) Cactus, prolific maker of wonderful and strange games, recently lectured at IGS on how to bang out a game in four hours. I've waited patiently, and now someone has finally put a video of the lecture on YouTube. It's pretty amusing. It's not very helpful.

I was there for that talk, and it's about what I was expecting from Cactus. Very strange, not all that deep, but still pretty entertaining.
