Podcasts about Global Game Jam

Σήμερα έχουμε μαζί μας τον Άγγελο Νικολάου, έναν δημιουργό επιτραπεζίων και βιντεοπαιχνιδιών που έχει περάσει από πολλές πλευρές της βιομηχανίας. Ξεκίνησε από την Καστοριά ως λογιστής, αλλά τελικά ακολούθησε το πάθος του για τα παιχνίδια.Είναι πρώην μέλος του ΔΣ του Συλλόγου Δημιουργών Ψηφιακών Παιχνιδιών Ελλάδος και διοργανωτής του Global Game Jam.Δούλεψε στη Riot Games και έζησε από κοντά την κοινότητα του League of Legends. Τα τελευταία 8 χρόνια όμως είναι στην Gambrinous, ένα μικρό indie στούντιο στην Ιρλανδία, όπου έχει σχεδιάσει:Το Guild of Dungeoneering — ένα πρωτότυπο dungeon crawler όπου χτίζεις το μπουντρούμι με κάρτες αντί να ελέγχεις τον ήρωα.Το Cardpocalypse — ένα single-player card game με αφήγηση, όπου αλλάζεις κανόνες και κάρτες όσο παίζεις.Και σύντομα το Eyes of Hellfire — ένα co-op gothic horror παιχνίδι όπου οι παίκτες συνεργάζονται για να λύσουν μια κατάρα σε στοιχειωμένο αρχοντικό.

Il y a 20 ans, un tsunami pire que ChatGPT s'abattait sur les développeurs de jeux vidéos. Un tsunami… que Amel a pris de plein fouet. Tout a commencé en 2004. 3 développeurs danois font le même constat : Créer un jeu vidéo, c'est un enfer. Entre les graphismes, la 3D, les personnages qui se coincent dans les murs… Le moindre jeu nécessite une armée de tech. Une armée que seule les plus gros studios peuvent se permettre. Et qui dit gros studio… Veut pas dire “bonnes idées”.

El congreso EUBIM 2024 tenía una sorpresa reservada para nosotros. Durante una jornada entera dos equipos de cinco profesionales BIM nos hemos embarcado en generar modelos enriquecidos con información para difusión de BuildingSMART. Lo hemos hecho mediante una competición abierta, donde sólo podía quedar uno, el primer Open BIMathon buildingSMART Spain No es ningún secreto que los miembros de BIMrras somos fieles defensores de todo lo que tenga que ver con código abierto. No sólo en lo que a software respecta, sino también a todo lo que tenga que ver con la I del BIM. Ese compromiso se materializa de diversas formas. Por ejemplo, organizando el Grupo de Usuarios BIM de Galicia. O poniendo en marcha la edición local de la Global Game Jam en Pontevedra. Así que cuando BuildingSMART España puso en marcha el primer Open BIMathon los de BIMrras teníamos que estar ahí. Llamamos a rebato en BIMrras Insiders, y cómo no, encontramos inmediatamente el respaldo de María López de Bustos y Marco Antonio Vara Tuñón. Así que, armados de ordenadores, licencias y mucha ilusión, nos presentamos en Valencia para la primera maratón BIM. Y no te creerás lo que pasó después. ¡Bienvenido al episodio 158 de BIMrras!

“You gotta be the best on your worst day.” Words to live by from the mother of Ronda Rousey, the mixed-martial-artist-turned-professional wrestler known as “the baddest woman on the planet.” Rousey's mother happens to be first American to win a gold medal at the World Judo Championships, and she also happens to be the mother of podcast guest Maria Burns Ortiz, co-author of Rousey's just-published memoir Our Fight. The book is a follow-up to the sisters' previous collaboration—the New York Times best-selling My Fight/Your Fight.    Maria has taken her mother's hard-won advice to heart, in an entirely different arena from her famous sister. A former columnist at ESPN.com, with an expertise in digital integration in sports media, she was honored as the National Association of Hispanic Journalists' Emerging Journalist of the Year in 2007 and has served as an adjunct professor of journalism at Emerson College.  Alongside her work as a journalist, Maria is also a leader and innovator in the game development industry. She is the CEO and co-founder of 7 Generation Games, an award-winning developer of educational adventure games for children, and was recently named executive director of Global Game Jam, the world's largest game creation event.  Join us as Maria shares what it was like to give voice to a shared childhood and a family history that gave rise to one of the most celebrated female athletes of our time.  Learn more about Maria Burns Ortiz: Website X/Twitter Instagram Ronda Rousey on Instagram Ronda Rousey on Twitter Please support the sponsors who support our show: Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog  Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount
