There were two discussions by recent startup game development studios about how to do just that. Chatting with the presenters we got some tips on things like how to make a game popular.

The IGDA is pretty active in our area and has some interesting events so I joined.

It was a really interesting event, I'd recommend future meetings.

IGDA Philly posted a recap here: New Studios Meeting Recap. It includes a link to the Powerpoint presentation given by Damon Alberts, who is the head of Burst Entertainment. He discussed game development from the business standpoint.

The second presentation was by the two owners of Cipher Prime, which created an online game called Auditorium.
