Saves on file space and can get around pretty lengthy import times.

This is amazing

Something to tickle the minds of spatial interaction designers. Another argument for why physical affordances for virtual hand-based input are important... Physical surfaces, clips, thimbles, rings

Yes! Pun game on point @osamadorias #gcap #MIGW22

[Melbourne International Games Week @GamesWeekMelbs]

Great to have Flying Man Games on board for their first #MIGW22 today - Welcome! 🙌

They shared fascinating insights about joys and challenges of board game start ups and lots of new connections made at Ferdyduke this afternoon

[Joel VDV @joelvdv]

Crazy to think that GCAP, 6 years ago, was the first time we ever showed off @townshiptale. What a distance we've come.

And this (#migw22) is the first time back to Melbourne since.

Also... demoing games has become a lot easier since inside out tracking became a thing!

[Joel VDV @joelvdv]

Flying down for #migw22 tomorrow morning. Looking forward to catching up with folk!

Lmk if you'd like to grab a coffee, or know anyone who would.

Keen to chat about the future of games, VR, etc.

[Joel VDV @joelvdv]

Lot of requests to cover what we're working on across the team, hope this adds some clarity!
