Student Game Postmortem - Chase the Chicken

Beth A. Dillon writes "The CMP Game Career Guide website for aspiring developers and game students has been launched, with several useful resources available to people wanting an in to the games industry. As an inspiration, the Student Postmortem: Chase the Chicken details what went right and wrong for an Art Institute of Vancouver project." From the article: "In Chase the Chicken, players assume the role of Chase, the frantic chicken, who narrowly escapes the blade of an oversized and over-zealous Chef. What follows is a ridiculously chaotic pursuit through a South American village with Chef and fanatical villagers clipping at Chase's tail-feathers. Inspired loosely by the opening sequence in the film City of God (Miramax, 2002), the idea was a bit of a tough sell to a team of students... but that's a topic for later."

Re:Give it one thing.

The thing is, I'll have already bought it and they'd have made their money. I know, I know, rent before you buy. But it turns out I'm too lazy to do that whole return them on time thing and it usually ends up costing me more to rent things than to buy them... For instance, I graduated High School four years ago, but still have several of my books and my football gear. I really should return that stuff...
