Earthrise shows off The Arboretum in developer journal
The Earthrise developers at Masthead Studios are turning out a series of blogs which explains the various zones of the post-apocalyptic setting of Enterra island. These developer journals hosted on MMORPG.com introduce us to the varied terrain and its inhabitants, while framing it all in context of Earthrise's lore. So far they've walked us through the burnt out factories of the Industrial Area, the dangers of the Cascade Mountains, and what happens when mutant ecosystems collide in The Hatchery.Their latest dev blog focuses on "The Arboretum" which is the refuge of the Nathura Society, largely comprised of scientists who maintain neutrality in the civil war between Enterra's main factions -- Continoma and Noir. The Nathura simply want to be left alone so they can pursue their ideal of engineering a truly symbiotic relationship between humans and the natural world.
Sunyang DNT's Volvox webcam and flash drive: does not rhyme with Dolores
You know, if you really have to carry flash memory around, why not bundle it into something useful like a lego, swiss army knife, or plate of rancid sushi? Sure, Sunyang DNT's Volvox is just another webcam with built-in flash; 512MB of it in fact, with an integrated 0.3 megapixel camera capable of a 640x480 resolution at 30fps. Not bad if you're toting an older laptop lacking a cam in the bezel. Regardless, we've certainly seen worse attempts at convergence. The Volvox is yours for 55,000KRW ($59) with 1GB and 2GB models expected this January. The perfect gift for Aunt Mulva.
