    Being a giant, beloved video game site has its downsides. For example, we sometimes neglect to give independent developers our coverage love (or loverage, if you will) as we get caught up in AAA, AAAA or the rare quintuple-A titles. To remedy that, we're giving indies the chance to create their own loverage and sell you, the fans, on their studios and products. This week we talk with animator Dustin Adair, founder of Scary Robot Productions about his maiden game: Poker With Bob. How did you or your company get started? I am a character animator for film and television and I've been working in Los Angeles for over a decade now. I've worked on a wide range of projects but when a friend of mine was once viewing my demo reel he commented that I had animated a lot of "scary robots" (Cylons and Terminators, for example). It was then that I decided to name my company after that fact and Scary Robot Productions was born. Poker With Bob is my company's inaugural creation.
