Hi friends, A physics game competition will be occurring August 29-31 in Cambridge, MA. (location TBD). There will be categories for remote entries, youth, professional, and independent game developers. There will be XOs and other sweet prizes for the best entries! Last summer, at the Boston Game Jam, the pros got destroyed. We're secretly hoping for a repeat ;) Save the date, and help spread the word. Feel free to pass this email on or post these images on your website. For more details, see http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Physics_Jam , or reply to this thread! In physics we trust, Brian Jordan
