Red Rover: Geolocation based tag game (Need testers in Toronto!)

Hi all,

We’ve been working on a location-based game project here in Toronto for the past bit and our doing our first round of alpha testing next weekend, Saturday July 17th. General idea of the project is to create an IxD pattern library that will be released through the Ontario College of Art and Design (University)’s Mobile Experience Innovation Centre; with the end being that we want a lot more in the way of interesting geospatial games around.

What we need are testers, or more appropriately, players. If you’re in Toronto, we’re going to be doing the first test in Trinity Bellwoods park (near Queen and Ossington) from 5pm to 8pm on the Friday July 16th. There will be pizza and liquidy refreshments, and plus you’ll be getting early access to our second game developed from the pattern library.

If this sounds good, take a look at this survey here: http://nrma.tv/bpHh0e
