The King of Kong was an interesting movie. A high score for Donkey Kong, set in 1982, was the world record until someone beat it just a few years ago.
Club members are getting a slow start on the Facebook Game Dev challenge, but that’s to be expected. FB game development requires frontend and backend programming skills, and Facebook has an API that you need to learn.
Nonetheless, we’re still hoping to see a couple games at our next meeting, in less than two weeks!

We had a great turnout at our last meeting, and some great pizza! Thanks to Zynga for coming!
The Facebook Game Development Challenge is in progress, and we currently have three teams formed. We know it’s hard to get started on a new platform, so don’t worry about the deadlines or competition. :)

Many thanks to Jude Gomila of HeyZap for speaking at our last meeting! It was great to learn how social networks can be used to promote games, and hear a success story from a start-up co-founder.
