dux Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Nice. What do 2nd, 3rd and 4th get? Quote
Hourences Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Posted February 18, 2010 1st 50.000USD 2nd 40.000USD 3rd 30.000USD 4th 20.000USD 5th 10.000USD So we just got 40.000 USD richer It'll all go to our company though. We need some new software, hardware maybe, we need a marketing budget, etc. so it won't make me personally any richer but it is bice to have a comfortable budget to work with. Removes some of the stress of starting a company Quote
Nysuatro Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Well deserved I would say. Btw when are you coming to our school? Quote
Hourences Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Posted February 18, 2010 March 22. Looking forward to that Quote
Nysuatro Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Me too. To bad I don't have leveldesign. But who knows we will meet, hehe Quote
e-freak Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 damn i need to keep on talking my professors into getting you to our school as well. decent price you won yourself there. 40.000 isn't too much but it can help alot especially regarding you can sell the game UDK based. Quote
Warby Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 congratulations on the victory ! Quote
Jenn0_Bing Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 Congrats guys, you definitely deserved it. Quote
dux Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 I'm guessing the mod that came first must be really good for this not to have won. Looked kinda cool in the video. But again in all the shots and videos of this engine, they all looked great but jaysus no AA in this day and age just looks peculiar. Quote

Yeah, make them hire me for a talk I am really stepping up my teaching activities, I am trying to go by one school a month. Quote
Grinwhrl Posted February 20, 2010 Report Posted February 20, 2010 Congrats on the second place win Quote
Hourences Posted May 2, 2010 Author Report Posted May 2, 2010 Update! We have been awarded a 45 000 USD development grant by the Scandinavian governments. It was a huge honor for us to be awarded a grant out of the 90-something applications they received! This grant will really help us get this game done, and to make it best possible experience. And we have posted screenshots of our brand new "King". Remember that monster with the staff that never attacked you in the mod version? We have totally remade him. The release of the full game is set for August! Our website: http://www.theballthegame.com/ Our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/theballthegame Our Twitter: http://twitter.com/TheBallgame Quote
