Three Thing Game Rides Again

These are the teams from last time with their random things. This time we are having a “Thing Auction” which should be fun.

We launched the latest “Three Thing Game” competition today. Teams were invited to sign up for our game development competition which starts with three things. You can find out all about it at www.threethinggame.com. We are very lucky this time because Stuart Lovegrove from Sony is coming to help the judging and tell us a bit about PS Vita development. In fact a couple of our teams are quite keen on entering with a game for that platform. The good news for them is that the development environment for the Vita is C#, which is the language we teach at Hull.

We’ve already had quite a few teams sign up, but if you are Hull student you should find an entry form in your inbox. Fill it in and bring it along as soon as you can (places are limited) if you want to take part.

I really must get my ears syringed, or something. Turns out that people said "PS Suite" and I heard PS Vita. We will be making games using PS Suite, not for the Vita platform.

The PS Suite apparently is a virtual machine that run's on the PSVita and several other Sony devices (And some Android apparently). I think Sony are trying to get some sort of app store going.

@Allan: It is, and Sony is. From what I head though you cannot run the games on the Vita itself, you only can on an emulator.
