Frozen Synapse: A Simultaneous Turn-Based Strategy Game / Turn-Based Tactical Game! levelhead/ Frances A Yates, in her book The Art of Memory, traces a geneaology of memory systems, practiced as an art, from the ancient Greeks through to the late mediaeval period. In a time without printing and paper for taking notes, these memory arts were of vital importance, both to the recollection of cultural artefacts (prose, theory, philosophical treatises) and practical tasks involving the storing of patterned information (numbers, names, dates). Of the many earliest methods used was the construction of imaginary architectures (memory loci) that were designed to specification precisely for the purpose of storing information such that it could be retrieved by 'walking through' the building in the mind. So it follows that the relationships between objects of memory were configured as being spatially associative, with the walking imaginary self acting as a reader. Several people have written suggesting that I make a version of levelHead with LCD screens.

Untitled Document LA Game Space | Center for Videogame Art × Design × Research Indie Game, Le film : "Il est temps de grandir les enfants !" Il y a des web docs qui font réfléchir, d’autres qui émeuvent mais la plupart que je regarde laissent une trace dans mon esprit de petit geek en plein épanouissement. Je pourrai en citer plusieurs mais le récent qui me vient à l’esprit est « Influencers (vostfr)« . Alors, oui c’est du réchauffé, on en apprend pas énormément sur ces leaders d’opinion mais j’ai pris pas mal de plaisir à le regarder et c’est justement ça le principal. J’ai découvert récemment le trailer de Indie Game : The movie qui montre l’univers des game designers, le business qu’il y a autour des jeux indépendants et j’en passe. Et là rebelote, le trailer met en scène Edmund McMillen (GAME DESIGNER DE SUPER MEAT BOY) puis j’ai pleuré. Indie Game: The Movie – Growing Up Edmund from IndieGame: The Movie on Vimeo. Autant dire que ce trailer est porteur de sens et je me retrouve un peu dans ce que dit ce grand Monsieur. Infinite Ammo – New Media Manitoba Business Showcase from BlinkWorks on Vimeo.

Swing Swing Submarine » Greek And Wicked Controls Arrows : moveX: use weaponsSpace: return to title screenEscape/P: Pause/keyboard mapping description Description “Greek & Wicked” is an experiment like “Tuper Tario Tros.” was, so not a big game. William started to think about the differences between old and modern games : what are those differences? Mostly better graphics and sounds, but in term of game mechanics old and modern games can be very similar. When we started working on it, Guillaume was playing a game that was the perfect modern and AAA game reference we needed : God of War. We had difficulties to finish this game, and in the same time daily news were (and still are) really hard too. Display all blog posts about Greek And Wicked
