Train2Game Game Designers have a chance to win an Apple iPod touch 8GB – 4th Generation, plus a Logitech Pure-Fi Express Plus iPod/iPhone speaker dock in the newest Train2Game competition.

We will need you to go to Student World to read the Terms and Conditions, they can be found in the ‘classroom section’.

The competition is to create the story and mechanics of an in-game character that is ‘extensible.’

Extensibility is a design principle where the implementation takes into consideration future growth. It is a systemic measure of the ability to extend a system (in this case, a character) and the level of effort required to implement the extension.

Extensions can be through the addition of new functionality or through modification of existing functionality. The central theme is to provide for change and evolution.

For full details about the rules and how to enter, see the competition thread on the Train2Game forum.

Good Luck!
