Hour 5 of Core Radio Cambridge

Whilst continuing our 30 hour broadcast we were visited by students from Thailand. As you can see we got them to show their support for Comic Relief.

Nerd Rage: Harlem shake's on the radio.

Chris. He's a bad representation of the Games Dev class.
 A collective sigh was heard as Core Radio made the ill-advised decision to play the harlem shake on the radio, at about 1:50PM on Thursday afternoon. Here are some pictures of people doing what they do.



Swag.
Claude, left, making a fool of himself. 
The thousand yard stare of horror.

And now for some actual games development.

Art creation seems to be going well and people seem to still be in high spirits about their games.

We want your money!

So far the Radio and Games students have raised over £700 just from sponsorship and sales of red noses

We are collecting donations outside the studio if you would like help us.


Year Twos start broadcasting


Charlotte and Bex start the first of their many hours of broadcasting

30 Hours of Night

I can't wait to see how cool he looks after 30 hours.
In the name of Comic relief, the level 3 games design students at CRC are doing a 30 hours long games design marathon. Most students participating have found sponsors to donate money to the cause. We are doing this alongside the level 3 radio students, who are doing a 30 hours long radio broadcast. We started at 10 AM on Thursday and are planning to finish at 4 PM on Friday.


 So the first hours of the the 30 hour games design marathon have been and gone. People have come in wearing their worst onesies and best morph suits (they're still terrible) and spirits appear to be high. Many people are exited to get work done, possibly for the first time ever, and the design process has begun. People have brought snacks to snack on, drinks to drink and general high-fat-content foods to keep them energised throughout the night and day.

Claude and Drew - Looking silly.

2 Hours in

Slowly but surely getting there!

Games students are getting involved!

Everyone's joining in with the Comic Relief fun!
