GIFF ME CONTENT!
(Also, I can't promise anything, but we might be overflowing with Cape Town + international devs because of this month's proximity to A MAZE) :)
Sure, that'd be great! :)
Here we go, tentatively titled Beat Beat Revolution! (think I'll get sued?)

"Beatris" "Beat Pong" "Hyper Beat" "Beatrix" <-- Just some suggestions ;)
Are you gonna put up a download for this?
As soon... As I unbreak it :/ It's not playable at the moment... sigh >_<
Stop breaking things! :P
Anyone interested in hearing me ramble a bit about "Designing Levels from a Mechanical perspective: teaching and challenging the player"?
Can you take a look around what videos you might want to show?
Then we can do the focused feedback first and then show the video :).
Also, anybody available to give lifts from Wits and back? We've got a whole bunch of Cape Town and international game makers arriving for A MAZE and I know a lot of them would be keen to come to the meetup if they could.
A few of us from Free Lives will be arriving at OR Tambo airport at 17:15. It'd be sweet if we could drop in on the meetup.
Basically Bannister Hotel, yeah? And I have a little yaris so probably can't take more than 4 - 5 at a squeeze :)
So if you go straight through to MS from the airport, you *might* just make it in time, but if you've got to go somewhere else first, you're likely only to arrive at/near the end of the talks and start of the mingles.
More like Free Rides!
:P
