App Heroes - Кикстартер дня: для Tiny Games весь мир – игровая площадка
March 27th - via: slon.ru
На Kickstarter началась кампания по сбору средств на приложение Tiny Games. Это сборник из сотен простых игр, в которые можно сыграть с друзьями в реальной жизни. Авторы проекта – небольшая британская студия Hide&Seek, специализирующаяся на проектировании игровых ситуаций в городской среде. Прошлым летом в рамках летнего фестиваля искусств они разместили по всему Лондону наклейки-рекомендации с 99 видами быстрых и несложных игр, способных скрасить скучную минуту или две. Акция пользовалась успехом, и теперь создатели хотят запихнуть рекомендации в ваш планшет или смартфон – и просят на это 25 тысяч фунтов. (Read More)

Everywhere you go, there are games: how Tiny Games wants you to involve everyone in play
There are posters scattered around PAX, and if you’re at the show you may have already seen one. Each one features the rules to a simple game, a game you can play with people you find and meet on the show floor. It could be a verbal game, or it could give you rules for lining up and fighting another group of three people like a turn-based Japanese RPG. Each game is simple, social, and designed to get people interacting. (Read More)

Estimating the cash you carry around could be a game, she suggests, and you could grade players on how close they get to the correct answer. (Read More)
