Game In The City Pictures
Unfortunately we didn't get a ton of pics from this event, but we got some pretty pretty pictures of the interior. Some might say the first decent overview shot.

DiGRA : Think, Design, Play
The DiGRA Conference "Think, Design, Play" overall went pretty well. Once people were in it they always seemed to enjoy themselves. All of the team members have their favorite stories to tell about the gleeful participants that came through. We had an updated version for this event, both physically and digitally. Our rotating light-sealing door as well as the containers metal construction really added to the feel of it. Also Nathan got a lot more functionality in there, as well as a couple of models we threw together for the event special.
As for footage, we got a little snippet in an official video [below] around the 39 second mark. We also had a photographer or two come take a look around so hopefully we should get some really nice pictures in our inbox pretty soon. Without further adieu, check out all the things that were at this conference along with our little spaceship:
Also I have a little snippet where I talk about the event in a video with my slightly broken dutch, can't seem to find it though so maybe they took it down. I'll update this if i find it again.

P.S. Check out our good friend Alex in the video with his custom headgear having a sword/battle-axe fight with the girl from subcultures.

THINK, DESIGN, PLAY
This year a game conference is being had at our school, with tons of interesting speakers and whatnot. Alongside them will be a couple of installations including our very own. Check out Think Design Play and see what you're missing.
Further more, we were asked for a description of our project and I wrote this little piece for it:

Do you like buttons, switches or knobs? Have you ever wondered what it’s like
to drift around in space with nothing between you and the infinite emptiness
other than a few pieces of metal? Or do you just want to sit back and listen to
tunes presented by your favorite disc jockey from 500 lightyears away? Please
come out and take the GraveDigger 2000
for a spin around the nearest asteroid belt. Just make sure to watch out for
any threats and remember all the help files are provided in a physical copy for
your perusal at any time, whether life support systems are running or not. Have
fun and good luck!

Also notice our terribly sneaky way of filming the play-testers!
