With a stroke of the governor's pen earlier this month, a game and film industry incentive bill became law. What does that mean for us as game developers? Any project spending more than $100,000 in-state is eligible for a 5% cash incentive, with a cap of $250,000, from the State of Texas. While this is not a staggering amount, every bit counts, and, more importantly, the mere fact that we now have an incentive program on the books is a huge accomplishment.
