Profiling each team and their game in the key development contest
In a week's time, 14 of the most promising upcoming development teams will be debuting the games they have created during the Edinburgh Festival.
These teams, all participants in the yearly Dare to be Digital competition put together by the University of Abertay, hail from around the world and offer genuinely original and creative ideas that use new interfaces and take on established areas of game design.
Both consumers and the industry are able to go along to Dare ProtoPlay, which allows hands on time with the prototypes - and after an industry vote one contender will be named as the best on show. The top three will also be eligible for highly coveted BAFTA Video Games Ones to Watch Award next year.
Dare ProtoPlay takes place from August 14th to 16th as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. AS well as showcasing new talent and their IPs, the event also includes other events such as: a music workshop by Yann Seznec, who will use Wacom pen tablets to create music instruments; Abertay PhD research programmes based on video games technology; a Dare iPhone game preview in association with Digital Goldfish; a special Career Workshop in association with BAFTA targeted for teenagers and much more.
Here, we profile the teams showing of their games next week. They hail from around the world – Canada, China, England, India, Ireland and Northern Ireland, Norway, Scotland and Wales – and have spent the last 10 weeks refining their ideas using top of the range equipment and mentoring from from a 'Developer Accord' formed by major video game professionals.
Whether you are in the industry and in the city to see the accompanying Edinburgh Interactive Festival or want to along to see some innovative new ideas, read on to find out more about the entrants.
Don't forget: entry is free for the event which is open 10am to 6pm from Friday, August 14th to Sunday, 16th August and takes place at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.
Radiant Jade game seems very promising
Ahh! All games look really cool and I look forward to having a go at Protoplay! Although is it just me though or is the poster for one of the games twice the size of all of the others? I'd understand if it was just the vertical image but the other game with the vertical poster has it shrunk down, plus their font is also about twice the size as that for some of the other games.
What's wrong with it being that size? It's one of the better looking posters.
Also is it just me or do some of the posters not really show of the game?
As per title : )
The different size images came that way from Dare itself, just so you know.
It just so happens that one particular picture is in portrait and the others are in landscape.
What is more important is their games. Come and play them and vote for them at Dare ProtoPlay - 14-16 Aug (EICC - Fringe venue 150). Hope to see you. Thanks.
When the teams get told to make these things they actually get given a format it has to be in, so the two teams who have vertical posters didn't pay attention to the directions given to them. Also the Quick as Theives team with the massive poster is an Abertay team, so suprise that they have a massive poster?! Me thinks not! Everyone knows how this competition is done.
Does tteam poster 13 look phalic to anyone else?
What's with the lengthy discussion over the image size? Being one of the people responsible for the image, I can assure you that it has simply been scaled up on this page to take up the same width on-screen as the others. Each team was given dimensions to adhere to but I'm afraid I wasn't told whether landscape or portrait was preferrable. The printed cards and posters were exactly the same size as every other team.
