Game Development Contest in Uruguay

Monday, October 4th, 2010

Once a year a Game Development Contest named "Concurso Nacional de Videojuegos" is made in Uruguay, organized by Ingenio and Proanima. This year corresponds to the 5th year contest, it began on July 14th and it ends on November 9th. During this time, a series of conferences are performed where people from video games industry are invited to share their experiences in developing games. All the conferences are leaded by the owner of Powerful Robot Games, Gonzalo Frasca.

Some people invited from local games companies are Fernando Sansberro from Batovi Game Studios (creators of The Adventure of Mary Ann and the Lucky Pirates, Super Vampire Ninja and some other games), Eli Barnet from Kef Sensei (creators of Parking Dash and Hotel Dash, etc), people from Trojan Chicken (creators of División Especial de Detectives for olpc and pc) and people from Kalio (creators of TriDefense for iPhone).

At the end of the last two contests, organizers invited Chaim Gingold (Spore game designer) and Robin Hunicke (Producer at thatgamecompany) to judge the contest games and share experiences as well.

This year we decided to participate with a small game in order to make a small entrance in the local industry and to establish a better relationship with the other industry members, and to win the contest, of course.

Ludum Dare 18 Jam

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

As we did for Ludum Dare 17, we decided to participate to Ludum Dare 18. In this case, there were two options, the classic : one developer has to develop a game in 48hs from the scratch; and the jam which allows multiple developers to develop a game in 72hs reusing any code and assets they want.

We tried to make the games for the main competition but as we ran out of time we decided to continue and participate to the jam instead.

Our entries are Dude, that’s my bullet from ruben01 and Grappling Hookus from arielsan.

You can try our games and make comments if you want.
