Quarter Presentations – Fall 2011

Monday, October 3rd, 2011 posted by carl

Quarter Presentations were on September 28th. We had about 30 guests in the audience, mostly made up of EA employees and ETC alums. This is an unusually large number of guests for Quarters and it made for lively Q&A sessions so early in the process.

Five Sided Square

Thursday, September 8th, 2011 posted by park.solip


Team 5SS (Five Sided Square) is an ETC Student Pitch Project for fall of 2011. Our project goal is to create a table top multi-player game by using one of the recently introduced platform, Sifteo Cubes.
As a team, we feel that our final deliverable should be one fully functional complete game on the Sifteo cubes. We will also include all documentation such as design documents, research results, and any other write ups we may create through out our production process.

The games that have been made for Sifteo Cubes are geared towards children. In creating our game we have decided to take a different approach. Our game will be more oriented towards the people who could actually afford the cubes: mature gamers. The target audience for our game will be middle-class males and females ages 18-35 who play video games and traditional games frequently. Our purpose in this is two-fold: to create interest in Sifteo Cubes within this demographic beyond their use as a child’s toy, and to target a demographic which will allow us to explore game mechanics that may not be understood by younger players.
