[GAMBIT-UROPS-summon] Friday Games @ GAMBIT 04/08/11 - A Look Inside Slam Bolt Scrappers

[Matthew J Weise]

We've got an unusual Friday Games this week. Local developer Firehose, itself
started by ex-GAMBIT folks, is going to drop by and talk a little bit about the
development of their new PSN game Slam Bolt Scrappers.

Slam Bolt went through several iterations before arriving at its final design.
Sharat Bhat, one of the GAMBIT alums who worked on Slam Bolt, will be be coming
to the lab to show some of early, rejected prototype mechanics for the game and
discuss why/how they were changed.

If you'd like to see how radically a game can change from initial concept to
final polish, come by the GAMBIT lounge Friday at 4pm, where Sharat will be
showing some early builds before we all play the final version.
