Tribeca Flashpoint Academy and ZoopTEK announce the upcoming release of the game: Avarice.

Avarice is the result of the collaboration between the Chicago-based ZoopTEK game studio, Tribeca Flashpoint Academy, and composer Miguel Kertsman. The talents of current and prior Flashpoint faculty, staff, and students who are located around the world were utilized, along with the technical, design, and commercialization contributions of ZoopTEK founder and Tribeca Flashpoint Academy faculty member, Alan Reck.

Avarice will be released by the largest online distributor of PC games, Steam, this summer and on May 16th, Avarice will be celebrated at a unique event.

Everyone is invited to the Tribeca Flashpoint Academy campus in downtown Chicago to witness the first real-time live scoring of a game soundtrack by composer and keyboardist, Miguel Kertsman, to the live game play of Avarice.

By attending, everyone will be able to watch players competing live for prizes as they play this explosive build-then- battle action game on big screens accompanied by live music orchestrated on the fly! Or, you may even join the competition yourself!

Join Tribeca Flashpoint Academy and ZoopTEK officials to celebrate this collaboration that is a demonstration of the practical education and experience that Flashpoint provides its students.

Join us in celebrating this momentous occasion!

Location: Tribeca Flashpoint Academy, 28 North Clark, Chicago, Illinois, 60602.
Date: Thursday, May 16.
Time: 5:45 PM.

We apologize, the website is in a bit of flux and messier than we'd like. We're on it :-).
It's much more difficult to make a proper third person crosshair than one may think. This is all about one of my little mottos, "perception is more important than reality." Ruining the Magic Trick In a typical first person shooter, such as Call of Duty, you have the crosshair at the center of the screen. When you shoot, the bullet always lands where your crosshair is. If you think about that for a moment in 3D space... BEHOLD AWESOME PROGRAMMER ART! Read more...
