UPDATE: So VOID won both Best Student Game and Excellence in Technology at IGF China, which is being held over the weekend in Shanghai. No one is more surprised than I am. If only they knew what our "technology" really is all about...

But more importantly, FREE MONEY!!!

Done.

Enjoyed it.

Great concept, but it's been kind of done in other games, no? Whatever, the atmosphere was nice and I especially liked the graphics of the right hand. The only gripe I have is there is one bit in the sewers where it looks like you can escape by doing what you've just learnt. However the water won't take you any further and in fact you have to go into the past to activate a switch. Shouldn't have made that opening so inviting!

Well if you were talking about (http://www.quantumconundrum.com/) Quantum Conundrum, (http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/10/24/ow-my-brain-parallax/) Parallax, or Bioshock Infinite, they were announced after VOID was done. There's this UDK game in development and a Flash game which both names I can't recall that had a similar concept, which was announced/released while we were in development. In fact, the team were quite surprised at how similar all those games were, and we joked that they were ripping off us. Other than that, I can't really recall any game with similar concept.

Void got posted on (http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/12/12/void-the-new-idea-for-a-portal-3/) RPS. John Walker thinks you should get hired by Valve!
