Up for sale is a rare, original copy of Game Developer Magazine from October 1997 (Issue #23) featuring the iconic 90s platforming mascot GEX on the front cover!

Unlike consumer-facing magazines of the era (like GamePro or EGM), Game Developer was an industry-only trade publication with a much smaller distribution run, making individual copies highly collectible today. This specific issue features an early look at \"Lessons from the Next Gex,\" along with deep-dive technical articles on Interactive Audio, Data Structure Design, and a retro postmortem on A Dark Sun Online.

This is a fantastic addition for any retro gaming historian, Gex fan, or 90s nostalgia collector!
