MONTEVIDEO INVADED BY GIANT ROBOTS

Browsing the web I happened to find today a quite impressive CG short film, where the city of Montevideo, capital of Uruguay (where I live), is being suddenly attacked by an army of giant robots and a squad of pretty advanced space fighters.

The film is entitled “Atáque de Pánico! 2009” (“Panic Attack! 2009”) and you can find more info about it here.

Kudos to the producers for this great release!

Enjoy,

[If you ask me, the title is kinda misnomer. I would have chosen a different one for such a great production. What do you guys think?]

RULES FOR MULTIPLE LANGUAGES IN XBLIG

Recently, there’s been some fuss regarding the use of (symbols from) unsupported languages in Xbox Live Indie Games (in particular, traditional Mah-jong symbols).

This discussion led the XNA Team to post the following two messages to clarify things:

• Indie Games May Not Include Unsupported Languages, and
• Amendment to Rules Regarding Mixed Language Games.

Read both messages carefully and if you still have questions post them in or browse the forums to get the answers.

‘till next time,
~Pete
