A Silverlight Shines On Hellgate
Hellgate: London is, of course, the new action role-playing game for the PC platform. Playworks Online, who distributes the game, will partner SingTel to launch the MMORG system.
Early this year, we worked with the Playworks team to deliver a micro-site that shows video previews of the various character classes, hosted and delivered with Windows Live Silverlight Streaming Service. Check out the Silverlight-enabled site at http://www.playhgl.com.sg/silverlight.
It was a quick and fun project, working with the cool design folks from Playworks - and we got the site up and running slightly over the span of a week.
The presentation and demo I showed for the 30th January technology briefing session on Rich Internet Applications was based on this project, and a modified version of the source will be made available soon.
