    Any chance of getting the blog on an RSS feed - much easier to keep track of :)

    I like the exploration idea - been thinking about that quite a lot lately - but how to make it into a game mmm... tricky

    Coolness. (I can't wait to see the racing demo). Following that thread on your blog will be great.

    Your Car- exploration idea really makes sence, but it'd have to be big though, with many different roads and options to take in order to make it feel like your own private journey..

    And the reflection demo was really nice too- Will have to upgrade; that stuff just adds a whole other dimention to games.

    I wish we could make it big... This is, however, a tech demo (and I'm running a full game production as well as doing all the shader stuff) - so we'll just have to do what we can.

    Guess it's mainly mental exercise... Also, I have this notion that just thinking a bit about these things might make the result better - even if it does not get completely realised....

    Right now, however, we've decided that we really could use a kick-ass demo... Just a small scene where we do everything we can with graphics... So I'll be working on that

    (You know there's something wrong when you've worked 40 hours this week and its only Tuesday)

    I know there's something wrong when you guys send me a email at 2:39 AM and I actually reply within the hour..
    Next week though, is when I start injecting coffee into my veins- [need that pro license, make widget, make, win..]

    Hi Nicholas,

    just a general question:

    How much of otees ressources is going into unity and how much into another game?


    Greetings,

    Our next game is a joint venture with a research project about serius gaming. I am on loan from OtEE, and only work on Unity in my spare time.

    On the next game, we're currently 3 up to 5 next month....

    Of course, spare time doesn't prevent me from taking the rendering code apart on my romantic holiday in Venice...
