The 'physBall' game I created is ready to be unleashed on an unsuspecting SL audience. It's a game that challenges the players' creativity as they try to roll the physBall across the SL landscape towards the goal.

Unfortunately I ran into some trouble deploying it. Everywhere I look I see 'no entry', 'no scripts' or the nefarious 'auto-return function'. At this rate I won't be able to place this game anywhere in the world, unless the land is mine.

That's why I'm looking for some friendly people who don't mind to have a couple of prims placed on their land and meet with the occasional unsuspected visitor. If you like to experience an innovative and fun game first-hand and aren't afraid of other SL residents, please let me know.


The Game
-----------
The game is as simple as the objects say. Just get the ball to the goal. The player that manages to get the ball in the ring will be payed L$100 by me. It might take some time before I get to you as I'm not always online. (I have to get some sleep from time to time.)
The only thing I ask in return is that you have a go at this game. Invite your friends to help if you want. Please document your solutions to the challenge in words and images and send those to: [email]hawkhorton@secondstrife.com[/email]
I will feature your story on the website as a testament to your wit and ingenuity.

About the Project
-------------------
I created this game as part of Second Strife, my exam project at the Utrecht School of the Arts. During this time I want to explore the limits of Second Life as a platform for game design.
