Fragapalooza and pureLIGHT

If you are interested in seeing pureLIGHT in action then we invite you to come out to Fragapalooza. It's one of the longest running and biggest LAN events in Canada. We are going to show off Torque 3D and how pureLIGHT works with it. We will be answering questions and doing demos during the day and having a little bit of fun in the evening. InstantAction has kindly provided us with some t-shirts to give away, so we'll be coming up with some whacky contests. Logan Foster from Max Gaming will be dropping by to show off Lore and other products his company has made with Garage Games products.

Our sister company 3DI Inc. will also be showing off our simulator and visualization products.

I've kept the best news for last. pureLIGHT Technologies and GarageGames will be giving away a license of Torque 3D and pureLIGHT to a lucky person at Fragapalooza. That's a $1500.00US value and if you act now... well nothing will happen, but if you come out to Fragapalooza and enter the contest you will be eligible to win everything you need to start working on that indie game project you've been designing in your head.

So come by to game for 4 days or just stop in and say,"Hi." at our booth.

I have never really been to a large LAN event before so I am pretty curious and excited to see what it is like and of course show to some pretty hardcore gamers that there are some awesome "indie" games out there too.

I will try to post some images and info on the event as it goes.
