48hr Game Challenge After Dark
News from Simon - Saturday, 04 October 2008 @ 8:47pm
Help! I have fallen into the internet and can't get out!
Darkness has fallen, and with it so has the atmosphere. A quiet hush has taken over as competitors prepare for the coming night. Teams are coping in different ways for the night shift:
Portal Marmosets have had a group tea break, remaining confident and relaxed and blogging the event by the hour. They also had a delicious Chinese salad; man don’t even get me started on Chinese salads!
Distortion Studios has reverted to arguing with their computers.
Lurker’s Craft is having a noodle break outside, still taking a laptop with a running prototype. Those guys are powered by free noodles.
Team Friction didn’t even realise it was night. When they tried to show me a build it froze and resulted in the members arguing as I tiptoed away.
Laserback Turtles are ordering a bunch of pizzas online. INTERNET PIZZA! Datachip Special, shaved ram on a motherboard base. Oh and codin like it was goin out of styyyyle.
Play has split their team into two projects, using different programs, still somehow confident in finishing both. Show offs.
Team Echidna is going to approach it like men, and grow beards over night.
Black Wolf plans to get some sleep and recover a bit of the energy their computers sucked out of them. I was telling them not to get those USB slots installed in their necks.
One member of Duct Tape plans to get a good night sleep while the rest work then bust in the next morning and fix EVERYTHING they screwed up.
Preemptive Revenge are vampire coders and apparently work best during nightfall and early sunrise. Still shedding a tear for their fallen brother.
Psuedorandom is goin’ out for KEBABS! Confident in their project and a little worried as it’s basically finished.
Sif90 is simply planning to power on at a steady pace. Squashing bugs and fightin’ thugs!
The AIE teams plan to… I dunno, sit in their big empty room and code on into the darkness, like valiant nerd knights.
I myself have started to unravel, feeling empty despite being full of energy drinks. Mik has left his 360 here so I might try playing some XBLA titles, which will no doubt drive me insane. I have my ninja turtles doona and a pillow here, so I am prepared if I have to pass out. I can pass out in a total cowabunga fashion.

Chowabunga squares!!!
