I am still alive. I have not disappeared yet. Though, I just finished a whole slew of Closure art up for the Independent Games Festival we submitted it to last night. I put in who-knows-how-many hours staying up till 7am on school nights to get stuff done and looking amazing. This is definitely the most ambitious project I have ever taken on and we're not even close to finishing. Glaiel-Gamer and I made ~20 demo levels to show off to the IGF Judges (Same thing we did for PAX but very updated and much closer to what we wanted originally), so I think sometime in January they announce the finalists. Wish us luck!

BTW - Become a fan of Closure on Facebook! http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/page s/Closure/153376509869?ref=ts

If you want to enter any of your games in, it's 100$ (shouldn't be TOO much if you get the game sponsored beforehand for a fair amount of cash). The least you can walk away with is a long list of judge feedback. And the most is a 20k grandprize and exposure either way. The deadline is Nov. 1.
Also, there's a student competition as well. They have like 10 $500 prizes plus a $2500 grand prize in that category - not sure what the entry fee is for this one but I don't believe it to be $100. Deadline for that one is Nov. 15 I think.

We are planning on releasing an IGF demo trailer sometime soon but we are both very far behind in school work so we need to catch up. More Closure related news to come soon (Maybe t-shirts!?).

Speaking of college, still pretty disappointed with the almost all digital art program they have going. I'm making the most of it though. Maybe I'll continue at art school after i graduate from this one. (Can never stop learning!)

So yeah, gotta get back to school work now.
