We've settled on a hotel for the trip to the Montreal International Game Summit (MIGS). The good news: it's a sweet hotel, and is about half a block from the conference center. The bad news: it's gonna be about $135 per person (for the 2-day stay). Ouch. The price crept up fast: $100 for the hotel, +tax, +parking. On the other hand, I'm looking forward to staying in a hotel room larger than 10x10x10 ft with bunk beds stapled to the walls. MIGS is November 16-17.
We're hosting a Game Jam the day after Halloween, November 1st!! Show up, find the theme, and partake in some hangover coding! Should be an interesting showing.
Game from a Frosh!
Adam, a new Freshman member of the club, showed his progress on his game "Catmouse," a 2-player top-down chase-and-kill game. Woo! Of course we're stoked to be seeing a new project from a Freshman -- more of that! Adam distributed the game to the club on a flash drive and had members pair off to test out the game. Generally, we gave him the feedback that the balance was still a little off, very biased towards the mouse; other than that though, it's looking great, especially for just a few weeks of work from one dude! Well done Adam!


Justin (TM) ran a small tabletop RPG today; a good time was had by all! Or so it seemed, judging from the shouting and jumping coming from that corner of the room.
