Calling all local game developers , Showcase your stuff

[TrinireturnofGamez]

 The ministry of sport and youth affairs is looking to showcase gaming as a positive thing for the youth. 
     Any local game developers (assuming we have) are welcomed to show off their stuff at a technology expo in about a month's time.
         
   They specifically want PG rated games , Guitar Hero , Dance dance revolution , they mentioned looking for possible cooperate sponsorship of game development..

 Any takers?

hmm sounds interesting

[TriniXaeno]

sounds good indeed.

How can you get us more involved in this Trini? You know someone behind the initiative? Could be a great collaboration.

 I was at a meeting yesterday concerning the Ministry's youth initiatives..  I was hired as a youth journalist.

I have no direct involvement with the game segment of the programme , but from what i see it looks to be a bunch of N00b bureaucrats chasing something they don't understand.

 What i'm looking for is for someone at GATT to have some kind of involvement with the program.. Remember , they only want kiddie games , preferably educational ones ie. Nintendo Wii , I'll give that person contact info for the ministry's programme .

It's a good approach.

Educational Kid Friendly games is an under marketed aspect of the local industry. You can find no shortage of Grant Theft Auto and God of War posters covering the walls of game shops islandwide. Not so for Big Brain Academy. lol

Big Brain Academy - Wii Degree: Grab your Wiimote and set your brain in motion with activities that test your skills in five categories: analysis, memory, visual recognition, number crunching, and quick thinking.

Smarty Pants:   Smarty Pants is a rowdy trivia game that tailors questions to the contestant's age, allowing friends and family members from ages eight to eighty to play simultaneously.

My Word Coach:  Developed in collaboration with linguists, this game helps players improve their verbal communication and vocabulary in an innovative and fun way.

Trauma Center-Second Opinion: (Basically a Wii-make of the DS title, this one is rated 12+ for the subject matter but maybe a worthy inclusion all the same) The critically acclaimed medical drama turns the Wii Remote into doctor's tools for laser surgery, defibrillation, forceps and more.

Trauma Center: New Blood (Same as above but better)
Any other hot educational games anyone can think of?

who wants to be the liason between GATT and the ministry?

[TriniXaeno]

I think you're a good candidate. Did you have someone else in mind? I could talk to the admin staff if you want someone else on the case.

[TrinireturnofGamez]

I'm not in charge of running any GATT sweats or resources so i  obviously need to talk to someone who does , thats what i meant by 'liason' .
 
  My intended purpose is to give the proper contact info to the people in question .

[TriniXaeno]

I see what you mean. A staff member it is then.

[TrinireturnofGamez]

I'd need the contact info for the staff member by tonight , meeting with the people tomorrow.

[TriniXaeno]

looks like arcman's your guy.

We will trade up info tonight. How come the ministry is meeting on a weekend though? They becoming work-a-holics or what??
