hey just wanted to inform everyone that after a very successful first crunch session last Saturday, we have decided to keep doing this activity for the students.
crunch sessions are 4 hour blocks where people can focus on their homework in a productive environment by having quiet space, other people there to work with, and other people to ask help from in various topics. (it’s also an environment that provides timbits and awesome discussions)
These sessions happen every Saturday from 12:30pm to 4pm on the 11th floor.
here are some pictures from last Saturday’s session after which Sagar showed some demos, played prototypes and talked game development.

focusing hard

workn' and crunchn'

Fellow Cyborgs,
The Interactive Mobile Gaming Clan blog is at http://www.urbanambush.com/img_clan/
Our mission statement explains the concept and criteria for designing our game.
Our team is in need of core members who are interested in the initiative, but I also invite anyone and everyone interested to contribute their input, ideas, and suggestions, and am hoping to involve the larger CCGD community in discussion, research, and testing
anyone interested can email me at: thehandwordandlaw@gmail.com , or leave some info here or on the IMGC blog
Courage, victory, and strawberry pocky,

Hi again…
So this is where each group will answer their own question. Think about what you’re trying to say with your project–what problem are you solving, what is its reason for being??
This will help us understand each other, but it’s also a good exercise for people who need to get used to explaining their artistic intents when submitting to a show or applying for a grant…
