Hi all,

Just wanted to make you aware that the Video Game Development Club here at NCSU is having a Code Off this Saturday (3/28/09).

Bring your laptop to Brooks 104 around 10am, where we'll spend all day until about 6pm planning, designing, and coding games in teams. It'll be 8 hours of intense planning, coding, fighting bugs, and working towards finishing a working product by 6:00!

The main language in use will be C# with XNA, but any language is really allowed; so come with your Linux computer and make something in Pygame if you prefer; though of course with the team format, XNA really will be the majority and is recommended, if you have access to a Windows PC.

I hope some of you will join us. Some people from the design college will be joining us to help make graphics, and so far we have several people (myself included) committed to coming on Saturday, so it should be a blast! Even if you aren't the best at programming, everyone will be helpful and we'll all work together to finish our projects.

If you are interested or have questions, you can contact drcrook@ncsu.[redacted] (David, the group owner) - or better yet, join the game dev club mailing list and email them: go to http://lists.ncsu.edu/ , click Subscriber Interface, in the search box partway down the page type "game_dev_club" (no quotes), and then use the subscription form near the bottom to subscribe to the list; finally, send an email to game_dev_club@lists.ncsu.[redacted] .

Hope to see you there!
-Ricket
