Cannons Lasers Rockets hits Steam Greenlight
Cannons Lasers Rockets, a free-to-play, cross-platform title by Net Games Laboratory, has been introduced to Steam Greenlight, where it will be subjected to the scrutiny of the community. Net Games is describing CLR as a "PvP/co-op arcade space game" that provides light-hearted gameplay. Players will be able to fight in 10v10 co-op and 50v50 clan warfare, with the options of hundreds of different ship and equipment types for optimal customization. The game will be F2P with cash shop support, but Net Games is adamant that any stats on items purchase with meatspace money will be on-par with items available in the game itself.

Pyxis 'Operating Environment' hits .NET, leaves no embedded chip unturned (video)
Almost exactly one year ago we got a little demo of Pyxis courtesy of Thomas Holtquist. It was basically a micro-OS, bringing simple application launching and other functionality to the very limited hardware of Arduino. It didn't have anything on Windows 3.1, never mind XP, but it certainly made interacting with DIY hardware a lot easier. Now Pyxis 2 is here, the so-called "Operating Environment" has been ported to the .NET Micro Framework. .NET MF is basically a version of Microsoft's .NET platform but stripped down and optimized for embedded circuits and the like, and Pyxis 2 makes app development and execution on that platform much easier. It's all demonstrated in the video below, and all the source code is ready and waiting to satisfy the needs of your development environment.
