The Art of Scratching Backs

So we haven't posted anything for a while.  Cryophobia is quietly being worked on with no major flashy pictures to show of late, as well as the burden of school starting (which affected 2/3rds of our dev team) and poorly timed illnesses (which affected the remaining 1/3rd) making dev time less abundant than it was a few weeks ago.

For lack of game progress to show, I'd like to shift gears real quick and talk about the art of back-scratching, in the sense of the proverb "I'll scratch your back, you scratch mine".  This is a concept that I think most of the gamedev communities of twitter and reddit are based upon.  Taking advantage of this concept can help gain exposure and goodwill that can be difficult to get from other sources.
