    Sawblade Software is the parent company of Power Game Factory, a game development environment for Mac OS X that even non-programmers can use (C.K. took a look at Power Game Factory earlier this summer). With it, you can make great, stand alone,  side-scrolling games with complex levels, Quicktime cut scenes, custom sprites...on and on. The best part of all: You don't need to write a lick of code and you can distribute your creation royalty free. Sound good? It is.I've been using it for a couple of months now, and I've found that making games is actually more fun than playing them. I recently had the opportunity to talk with Jesse Simko, the company's founder. We chatted about his inspiration for creating a development environment for non-developers, his experiences so far and his future plans. You can read the interview after the jump.
