Old Games, New Experience

This doesn't really have to do with augmented reality or what we discussed in class, but rather the first-person Tetris game linked to in the class blog.

I could have commented on the blog post, but I wanted to include some inline images. So, game the first:

3-D Stereogram (Magic Eye) Tetris
I don't think that my screenshot helps see the effect, but this is basically a magic eye poster version of Tetris. You've got to focus in a strange way so you can see actual pieces falling. I couldn't play very long because I had to sit in a weird position at my desk in order to reach the keyboard and maintain the Magic Eye effect.


























And game two:

gnop
It's pong, but be the ball instead of the paddle. You have to control the pong ball through a series of pong screens that have more or less difficult paddles.

  1. I failed miserably at playing both of these games. I couldn't be the ball!

  2. Hello group. For Friday's blog assignment, I'm calling Donna Haraway's article: The Cyborg Manifesto as mine.

    Thanks,

    Dena.
