With the emergence of "easy to use" tools, there is definitely a growing interest in small, homemade games. It's an interesting topic and I'd love to see what you guys have to say.

The development of easier tools will lower the barrier to entry for lots of new developers. I'm especially interested in tools that make it easier for teens to get involved in collaborative development.
