    UUC Games Night

    We held a games night for students and school pupils on Tuesday 20th November at University of Ulster, Coleraine. It was a good turn out and the night was a success (other than a minor hitch with the Halo 3 System Link game). My own game Sky Surfer was on show, and it was pretty fun to get reactions from new players of the game. Obviously the most common response to the game was how insanely difficult it was, but in amongst the pain there were some very positive reactions, with several people saying it was really addictive and one even reckoning if I sold the game they would buy it. Nice! It did emphasise the point that I made whilst writing my evaluation of the project: User play-testing is vital! :)

    Anyway, some photos of the night can be found here.
