Patrick's video of Bit Bash got me excited to attend a gaming event, so I'm thinking of going to PAX Australia this year. Just wondering what is generally the best day to go? Opening or closing day? Or should I just go to all three?
@wazzam: Thanks dude, I'm nearly ready to implement networking in my own game and I'm clueless when it comes to that sort of stuff. I'm not familiar with sockets but if that package can give me similar functionality to Unity Pro it might just save me a lot of money.
And yeah, that tutorial is really helpful. I watched it a while ago, I'll have to watch it again.
@evo: Huh, that Kill Screen website looks neat. Maybe I'll check it out.
It's been through a few iterations, including being a subsidiary of Pitchfork early in its lifetime, but the site really seems to have caught its stride recently.
Yeah, it's come a long way since the Pitchfork days. I've discovered a lot of games, artists, exhibits and stuff that I wouldn't have otherwise.
Recently Kill Screen has become my go-to gaming website after Giant Bomb. Today those two worlds collided when this article on low-poly art mentioned a thread on this forum. Take a bow @ch3burashka and @scooper
Any outsider looking strictly at the chronology could be forgiven for thinking these artists are volunteering for a suicide mission. As evidenced by a comment thread about the Next Generation cover on Giant Bomb’s forum, the general consensus is that the low-poly graphics of the Unreal era look painfully dated today. (For example, see such retorts to the magazine’s claims as user ch3burashka’s “It seems Next’s April Fools [sic] issue came out 2 months late” and user Scooper’s Oscar Wilde-esquebon mot “fake and ur a bitch.”)
