Fay's Quick Qwismas



In 2011, Fay spent Christmas doing an animation internship in Japan. Because she missed Christmas with her family, Erik and I made this game for her. That way she could get the experience of Christmas thousands of miles away and also quickly in between her busy schedule.

Warp Zone Art Show 2014 (pictures!)

The opening of the Warp Zone Art Show last night was a roaring success! Even more art, music and fun than last year and will hopefully continue to grow strong!  In just one year we have grown into not only an art show but also as part of the Global Game Jam and a TV show. We're very proud of how far we've come in just one year. We'll continue to work hard and bring awesome video gamey goodness to Amsterdam and the world. :)

Thanks everyone who attended our opening night! Don't forget that the art will be on display for a whole week. If you couldn't make it last night or you regret not buying one of our fantastic pieces of artwork you are welcome to drop past all week!

 Next Sunday (14th of September) we will be hosting Warp Zone: Cutscene at the Nieuwe Anita. This is our annual mini-film festival of video game related shows and movies. Instead of our originally planned schedule we will be showing Angry Video Game Nerd: the Movie! Now's your chance to see the film on a big screen for free! Showing from 19:00-21:00. PS: After the film, The Free Fringe Festival closing party will begin so the party continues! :)
