Having spent my summer monster hunting I have been neglecting my blogging duties so here is an interesting little project based on an idea that’s been festering in the back of my mind for a while. Not content with inflicting 3D glasses on you for anaglyph photography I thought it would be interesting to explore using them in a mobile game and finally managed to persuade a student, Ahmed Alansari, it would be a good idea. Basically it’s a touch based game similar to the old Asteroids game except with 3D anaglyph blocks flying out at you which you destroy by tapping with your finger. Here is the current prototype which still needs some work on the explosions but even with this poor quality video you get the idea. I am of course assuming you all still have those 3D glasses ;).

Im pretty sure it the first game of this type and quite probably the last ;)
