Just a quick note that the game I participated in creating (as lead 
programmer) in May this year, FLIPSIDE (http://www.playflipside.com), has 
won the Independent Game Festival 2008 Student Showcase Award, as one of the 
12 finalist games out of the 125 entries.

The winner out of the 12 finalists will be awarded on February 20 at the GDC 
in San Francisco, but unfortunately it's pretty expensive to travel there 
here from Denmark, so I won't be able to show up.

In other news, I did get that arrangement with the game engine company Unity 
Technologies about writing my master thesis in collaboration with them. 
Basically what I'll be doing is like my "Walking System" I made for POV-Ray 
back in 2001, but "done right" this time, which is a bit easier in a 
framework that already supports skeletal keyframe animation. They've already 
lent me a MacBook (their authoring tool only runs on Mac so far). I look 
very much forward to it, and if it goes well, there's a good chance that 
they'll offer me a job afterwards.
