Here are some photos Abbey manage to snag on his iPhone <– future development platform right there.
The 48 Hour Competition is over and here’s the blog post about it:
Congratulations To:
Sif90 - Winners, can’t wait for a keyboard controls or till I see Jase cause he’ll have his 360 Controller PC Connector for me to play their game with.
As well as congratulations to all the other teams for coming! Making a game in 48 hours takes balls.
A Thankyou To:
Judges, always happy to thank the judges John Passfield, Gordon Moyes, Jackie Turnure and Ben “Yahtzee” Crosshaw.
Also to Truna, Acid, IGDA and other organisers - kudos to Chen Reed and his two lovely assistants. I was taken aback to see the techie stay awake so long - that guy’s committed, and thanks.
Souri of Sumea for supplying the three key words; Truna says he must be a bot because no one’s met him in person, but I’m going with the suspicion that Souri is Truna’s alter-ego either that or some Ghost in the Shell type thing where Souri is like some intelligent system on the nets, a soul within the machine, Deus Ex Machina.
Our Team:

Our Game:
The game we managed to make, and it’s pretty much near finished, is Whirlpool Wipeout available here. This is the version we submitted at 4:00pm for the judges and those builds are available for 360, Windows for XNA studio users and general Windows (may work, may not, has worked half the time so far). Enjoy.
Lall is sleeping on the floor, he said he likes it hard.
Kyall is on his 70th smoke.
So far the game is better than Clunk from last year, this one actually runs.
I am going to neck myself if I see this montage of trailers one more time. I now know the insides of every major studio in QLD better than the staff.
The art team is working casually, because we can.
Hello all - Kyall here, dishing out the team formation for the GAME ON 48 hour competition 2008

That’s right, it’s the 48 hour proudly brought to you by the IGDA Brisbane chapter, QUT, Griffith, Qantm and the sentence ‘It will fucking rock’. This year we have much larger team which if all goes well will lead us to VICTORY!!
As all you visitors can see, and by visitors I mean just me, kyall and the random spambots, we have given the website a nice overhaul. Simple and clean, may not be the best but I like it. Finally the new logo has been worked in.
More information on the 48 hour right here.
New animated logo
Eventually I’ll do some deep and meaningful piece on what games mean to me but for now you’ll have to settle with an update.
That’s right, a nice and lovely update post for all you eager readers out there.

Sure the image doesn’t relate but that was the hottest picture I could find that had to do with the title, no more queen on stamps in England apparently.
On to the meat and veg of this post which is a quick update showing off the new pool physics vs the old games inaccurate and strangely unique physics.
Kyall has done a great job implementing all the required vectors and hoopla, can’t explain much, don’t want to give myself a headache 
.
Also, never search ‘Old’ on google images with SafeSearch off. You have been warned.
Hit the jump to see what I’m on about.
I still like my Playstation 3, I liken it to a Disney sport movie where the team, (Playstation group) is going great until some form of tragedy happens(dodgy release). This leads to the players feeling down and they quite possibly go on a losing streak(low sales) but all it takes is one inspirational moment(??) to get them to the championships and win.
I would love for it to be one game to lift up the PS3’s install base but it will have to be multiple quality titles. Fortunately this year is looking superb with the releases of some top notch titles, I just hope the dependence Sony has on them doesn’t impact too much.
What about my Wii
No More Heroes looks the best
Interesting yes!
Completely unrelated, I am organizing my comic book collection now with a nice piece of free software. 200+ comics to put in so I best get back to it!
Excelsior!
LIIBEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!
This is simply a homage, inspired by a comment on Kotaku, to Jeff Brown’s balls.
