so some dudes at my school made this game called Tag

it's pretty neat for a student project

tag_screenshot_3.png

you shoot colors around on the world

green makes you jump

red makes you run fast

blue makes you stick to walls

that's all there is to it

you should play it

it is free

    I think Igneous should be submitted next year, along with Phobia.
    Both are fucking badass

    I've heard really good things about phobia, some of the art looks great and it sounds terriffic

    haven't heard a thing about igneous, though

    we don't hear much over at the art side

    especially the freshmen

    Several of my really good friends work on Phobia, so I'm biased. But it's a really cool idea.
    Igneous has no artists but is the best looking game I've seen; they spent so much time on really tight post-processing effects. Very cool stuff.

    And yeah, I think Ellinger is working to make the two campuses work even more closely next year.

    So it gave me a stop error and a BSOD

    I was around the part where you have to use red and green together

    It seemed fun but movement needs tightening up
