Default Developer list

First of all I just want to say that I enjoy this site a lot and use at as my main and only source of news for everything adventure related
I just have one question relating to the Review Index. When I go check all the games in the database is there a way for me to sort them by the developers?
If not is it posible for it to be implemented at some time?
Most of the time when I am checking out new games or reminding myself of old ones I want to know which of them are from the same developer without having to stumble upon it or check each of them seperatly. Hope there is a way for me to do that and I just haven't discovered it yet

You can't sort by developer in the A-Z database but if you go to the game page for a certain game, you'll see a side bar with "other games in the series" (if they are there) and if you scroll further, you'll see "other games by the same developer."

It's one way I can think of.

To expand on that, many games come with a list of games from the same developer.

For example, The Journeyman Project, not only shows other Journeyman Project games, but other games from Presto Studios.

I know there is the desire to do more with the database, but actually implementing such changes is easier said than done.

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree

Yeah, we're in the midst of a pretty major overhaul of our whole database system, and I honestly can't tell you for sure what features will and won't be available when it's done. But it's unlikely a sort-by-developer will be included for reviews. As the others pointed out, though, there's already a way to find a list of all games by any one developer.
