flipCode, a popular resource for game development news, articles, and discussion on the Web, quietly closed down last month after over six years of service. All article and forum archives will stay available (though they are temporarily not available now), but no new submissions of any kind will be accepted.

Kurt, flipCode’s primary editor, left this message on the site’s front page:

As the site’s primary editor, I would personally and sincerely like to thank everyone who’s contributed positively to the site and surrounding community. This site couldn’t possibly have grown to what it was in its prime without your help. I realize this announcement may be a disappointment to many, but I feel I’ve done all I can with this site to serve the game development community over the years. The industry is changing rapidly, as is the face of the web. There are plenty of other game development resources out there (of all shapes and sizes), and more are sure to pop up. I genuinely hope you enjoyed your stay at flipCode, and wish you the best of luck with your future adventures.

Here’s to game development harmony. tips glass

Many former regulars of flipCode have migrated over to DevMasters.net. DevMasters features a game development wiki, forums, articles and tutorials, news, and looks like a great community.

Best of wishes to Kurt, and everybody who made flipCode what it was for the past six years.
