RobotAcid: I've Made a Silly Game

Thursday, April 06, 2006

The dialogue entry page for Levite is up and running. I've also put together a collaborative project with a friend of mine called Architectris. It's a video game that can be played by running left and right in front of a video camera and shouting into a microphone.
