Pop-Up City is a game we made to run on the Ellipse at the Museum of London, for one night only.
The Ellipse is an amazing huge screen that wraps around a whole room, a grid of 48,000 LEDs suspended around a central atrium, a widespread screen measuring 1200 pixels wide and only 40 high. It’s very pretty. And we were very excited to make a game for it.
It’s August! As always there’s some open calls and conferences and games going on, but there’s also a lot of interesting writing around this month.
WordPlay is back in Toronto and has an open call out for games and talks relating to the use of words in contemporary games. Games that are accepted for the showcase receive an artist fee of $80.
This week, we’re off at the Science Centre Singapore as part of the Maker Extravaganza for Maker Fair’s 40th Anniversary. GEEK Play has curated a hall full of play and interaction, and we’re really excited to be there alongside John Sear, Genetic Moo and TROPE.
