Thank you and Happy New Year!

I'd like to toast the GameDev community as we celebrate the end of 2018! 

As we enter 2019 and begin to celebrate GameDev.net's 20th anniversary I wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you.

Thank you for being part of this community, for contributing to its growth and success, and for supporting GameDev.net as your platform of choice to learn, share, and connect with game developers and technology enthusiasts. You make this community what it is and your participation in it is invaluable for strengthening the community into what it is today.

As part of our 20th year celebration and to share the stories of those who have shaped our community - the members - we're asking everyone to submit their GameDev Stories, big and small, by answering some questions about themselves and their participation and the impact and value GameDev.net has had on their lives. You can click here to submit your story.

I think I can speak on behalf of the entire GameDev.net team when I say that we are humbled and have enjoyed being a part of our GameDev community and all of the great discussions, articles, blogs, and projects that have come out of it. In 20 years I have watched the games industry evolve from a world where a "game engine" was a new concept and into the powerhouse of creativity and technological change that it is today, and with that I am excited about the future growth and evolution of GameDev.net as the best game development community and platform.

Again, thank you. And on behalf of all of us at GameDev.net, have a safe and Happy New Year!
