![]() Hunting monsters of the deep.Earth Atlantis sticks closely to its shooter roots, as opposed to fully embracing the Monster Hunter influence. In it, you explore a sprawling underwater world where your only real targets are number of gigantic bosses, listed out on the hud and indicated by blips on the overworld map. Play Earth Atlantis Developer: Pixel Perfex | Platforms: PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One | More info Imagine taking the shooter gameplay of a classic series like R-Type and adding in a Monster Hunter twist – that’s Earth Atlantis. Paper Garden seems like exactly the sort of accessible and immersive experience the various VR platform holders would welcome, so here’s hoping we see this on a digital storefront sometime soon. ![]() The world itself also responds to your actions in more subtle ways – miss a target and hit the ground or a wall and a bush will sprout at that point. I love this idea conceptually, and the natural beauty of the garden itself is neatly juxtaposed with the mechanical – yet also somewhat mystical – targets themselves, which build towards a final towering golden monolith to complete the demo. ![]() Colour sweeps across the garden, activating other targets and making trees and shrubs spring up. By hitting the eye-like golden targets you’re bringing life back to a grey world that’s been “overrun by an ancient blight”. It takes a few moments to get a feel for, but quickly becomes intuitive, allowing you to shoot for distant targets, curve toward a target behind a tree, or deliberately toss a plane high into the air before diving down onto a target.Ī simple, but enchanting environment.Paper Garden is more than just a simple target gallery, however. You simply pluck one of the planes flying around you out of the air, then toss it, using the relevant Oculus Touch controller to help guide its flight a little – diving, climbing or curving around to one side. A VR prototype, it was created by the tiny Vitei Backroom team in five weeks and elegantly captures the simple joy of throwing paper aeroplanes. Play Paper Garden Developer: Vitei Backroom | Platforms: PC | More info Paper Garden was one of the most soothing experiences at this year’s show. There’s a solid foundation here – and the game is already feeling super polished – so after my initial introduction at BitSummit, I’m keen to play some more… which I can do because CrossCode is in early access. As the name suggests, they can also be bounced off walls to hit switches and the like, so balls very much factor into puzzle solving. Combat is built around melee attacks, dodges and “Balls” – projectiles you can aim and throw, and that can be given elemental properties. She’s the classic video game amnesiac protagonist and is (literally) mute, but I’m totally sold on that being used to drive the mystery behind her story and that of CrossWorlds itself.Ĭharacters are front and centre, but backed by robust RPG systems.The broader game design is very much an action RPG, so you can expect quests, equipment, character progression, etc., all anchored by a characterful 16-bit presentation. The staff Lea meets on the ship are flesh and blood humans – support staff for the game – and Lea herself seems to have an involved history with CrossWorlds, but is unable to remember. Everyone in The Playground is an avatar, in that they’re all being controlled from another location, but the city itself is a real city on a real planet. As Lea, you wake up on a massive cargo ship that’s docked some distance from a futuristic city called The Playground, which plays host to an MMO called CrossWorlds. Here we go! CrossCode Developer: Radical Fish Games | Platforms: Linux, Mac, PC | More info CrossCode has a pretty intriguing story set-up. Even over the course of two full days I simply wasn’t able to check out everything, so apologies to any devs working on awesome projects that I missed. (Last year I focused on titles being developed in Japan.) Also please bear in mind that this is by no means a definitive list of great games at BitSummit. This year I’ve decided to give you all an overview of the games that I enjoyed playing most, regardless of where they’re being developed. It’s a very international event too, so in addition to the Japan-based indies, there are plenty of devs who’ve travelled from far and wide to show off their games. This two day event is not necessarily that dissimilar to the indie spaces at PAX, or other consumer shows, but it’s nonetheless an awesome window into what’s happening in the indie scene within Japan, and BitSummit itself still feels very much like a grass roots celebration of gaming: a space being shared by everyone, with tiny start-up studios rubbing shoulders with well-known, high profile industry figures.

Cellular isolation from fixed, archival tissue is difficult. Not only does this approach prevent the examination of the cardiomyocytes in situ, but there is also the possibility that the isolation process alters cell dimensions and volume. Obtaining enzymatically isolated cells usually requires fresh cardiac tissue. Enzymatic isolation is essential for studies employing cell culture, flow cytometry, or ex-vivo analysis of calcium signalling by confocal microscopy. In order to characterise the growth and properties of individual cardiomyocytes within the myocardium there are currently two methodological procedures that can be employed one is to enzymatically isolate cardiomyocytes from fresh unfixed heart tissue using a collagenase enzyme 5 and the other is to fix and embed tissue samples in paraffin, OCT (for frozen sectioning), or resin.Įnzymatically isolated cardiomyocytes can be used for the measurement of cell volume, nuclearity (number of nuclei per cell), and ploidy (number of genome copies per nucleus). Given that abnormal growth of the myocardium, particularly ventricular hypertrophy, is strongly linked to adverse cardiovascular events in later life 4, it is important to understand how cardiac muscle grows in early life and how it responds to cardiovascular disease and injury. Cardiomyocytes are replaced at a rate of 5% per year at 15 years and 0.5% at 60 years 2 however, the additional and replacement cardiomyocytes do not have the capacity to repair the heart after injury 3. Development of cardiac muscle is a far more dynamic process than previously realised in humans, the total number of cardiomyocytes triples between birth and 20 years of age 1. ![]() Our novel time-efficient method permits the entire cardiomyocyte to be visualised directly in 3D, eliminating the need for precise alignment of serial sections.Ĭardiomyocytes are the individual functional units of cardiac muscle, providing the contractile power of the heart. This method of staining and analysis of cardiomyocytes enables accurate morphometric measurements in thick histological sections, thus unlocking the potential of archived tissue. Using confocal microscopy and three-dimensional image analysis software (Imaris Version 8.2, Bitplane AG, Switzerland), cardiomyocyte volume, nuclearity, and ploidy were measured. Previous methods have been restricted to thin sections (2–10 μm) and offer an incomplete picture of cardiomyocytes. Thick (40 μm) paraffin sections were stained with Wheat Germ Agglutinin-Alexa Fluor 488 to visualise cell membranes, and DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) to visualise nuclei and measure ploidy. To demonstrate the utility of our technique, heart tissue was obtained from four species (rat, mouse, rabbit, sheep) at up to three life stages: prenatal, weaning and adulthood. We describe a method of analysis that permits the direct simultaneous measurement of cardiomyocyte volume, nuclearity, and ploidy in thick histological sections. ![]() Current methods require enzymatically isolating cells, which excludes the use of archived tissue, or serial sectioning. Quantitative assessment of myocardial development and disease requires accurate measurement of cardiomyocyte volume, nuclearity (nuclei per cell), and ploidy (genome copies per cell). This is also helpful if you are unfamiliar with components, you can simply say “I’d like cards made with the same material as the cards in The Isle of Cats” or “What’s the name of the finish used on the box cover from Vadoran Gardens?”. With one of their games in your hands you can truly measure the component quality and how things have been assembled. I found the best option here was to enquire about games the factory has produced and then to go to a shop and buy one (you can also go to a board game café or ask friends who might have them). Measuring the quality of a factories production capabilities is hard, sure you can get some sample packs from them, but these aren’t truly representative of final products available in a shop. Overall price: Are they competitive (not necessarily the cheapest) vs other manufacturers?.Do they recommend small changes to materials, sizes, or quantities that will help bring down the price? Brainstorming: If the price is higher than I want it to be, how much will they help with brainstorming component changes.Quote detail: How much detail are they providing in the quote, am I just getting a total price, or can I see a full breakdown?.When it comes to price, there is more to it than just the cheapest option, here’s my criteria: Accuracy: When asking questions, do they answer everything with the level of detail you need, or do you find yourself left with more questions?.Frequency: How quickly do they respond to your emails, are you having to chase, or are things moving at a good pace?. ![]() Language: Not everyone is going to speak your native language perfectly, do you feel like your emails are being fully understood, and do you clearly understand the responses?. ![]() I break communication down to several different parts: CommunicationĪbove all else, communication is the key to manufacturing a great board game, if you can’t talk with the factory then you’re going to have problems. Let’s take a look at my 3 key measurements. There are plenty of reputable board game manufacturers and the biggest decision came down to which was best for me. Yet, when I started digging into things it turned out that I didn’t need to worry as much as I originally thought. When I first started making board games there was always a part of me that was worried, how can I find a factory to make my games, are they going to do a good job, or will I lose all my money? It doesn’t matter how well a game plays or how pretty it looks, if the physical game is full of errors, cheap materials, and doesn’t meet my customers standards, all my hard work could be for nothing. ![]() This is possible thanks to MirrorMeister’s capability to cast content to multiple receivers.

Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry spent massive amounts of money to fight back, and presented it as an issue of “constitutional freedom” rather than of abortion. The Planned Parenthood Action Fund self-reported to the IRS that 22 of its total spending was related to political campaign activities. And pro-abortion groups are spending huge amounts of money to make that happen. The Value Them Both amendment would have stated that the Kansas constitution contains no right to abortion, allowing legislators to enact their own laws on abortion. Similar efforts were made in Kansas by abortion groups, including Planned Parenthood, though they were successful in that instance.

Prices start at $2,870 for studios, $3,840 for one-bedrooms, and $5,660 for two-bedrooms. The 34-story building, with 476 apartments, was designed by Perkins Eastman and developed by RXR Realty. “There’s a lot of cool restaurants, bars and coffee shops you can easily walk to.” The couple said that they love the walkability and vibrant dining scene in the skyscraped ’hood. “I like the area between Fort Greene Park and Downtown Brooklyn,” said Karunaratne. With his new office in the Financial District, only two stops by subway, Karunaratne found the location to be “a massive plus” and more desirable than parts of Manhattan where he initially searched, which felt “claustrophobic.” with his 27-year-old girlfriend Dainora Jonusaite. That’s attracting newcomers like Roshan Karunaratne, 32, a health care director who moved from Sydney, Australia, to a one-bedroom apartment at the new Willoughby at 196 Willoughby St. “Downtown Brooklyn has become an extension of Lower Manhattan.” Matthew Villetto, executive vice president of Douglas Elliman Development Marketing New office towers, from the 495-foot-tall 1 Willoughby Square, developed by JEMB Realty Corporation, to the 360-foot-tall 141 Willoughby, by Savanna Partners, are in the works.Īnd there’s also a plan over the next decade, commissioned by the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, to make the neighborhood more pedestrian-friendly with a master plan designed by Bjarke Ingels Group and WXY architecture + urban design to transform the streetscape with more green space, shared streets and bike lanes. Dainora Jonusaite (left) and Australian transplant Roshan Karunaratne (right) are living the high life in a new skyscraper at 196 Willoughby St. The area’s thriving cultural offerings include BAM, BRIC, the Center for Fiction, Mark Morris Dance Group and Barclays Center. Whereas Flatbush Avenue, a major spine of redevelopment, was once clogged with gas stations, carwashes and XXX shops, today the neighborhood boasts sparkly modern conveniences, like Apple, Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s, as well as DeKalb Market Hall at City Point. “Downtown Brooklyn didn’t have much of an identity over the last decade,” said Jared Della Valle, CEO and founder of Alloy Development, who recently broke ground on the Alloy Block, a five-building, mixed-use project in the area.ĭowntown Brooklyn’s new live, work and play vibe is partly thanks to a 2004 rezoning, which was designed to increase the area’s commercial footprint. The borough’s densest neighborhood has witnessed a development boom that is now squeezing skyscrapers to heights of over 1,000 feet, rivaling the supertalls on Billionaires’ Row in Manhattan.

And there’s also its gPodder Configuration Editor. Users can also define their preferred YouTube format, as well as enable various extensions. There’s also a useful slider which lets you delete played episodes after a set period or once you have listed to an episode. Besides changing the audio and video players, users can synchronize with, and define the time for updates. The software is very configurable, there’s lots of setting in preferences that you can tailor the software to how you like it. But in Linux, you’ll need to enable the toolbar (View / Toolbar) before you can access them. In Windows, you can access the preferences from the gPodder menu. There are a few inconsistencies between the Linux and Windows versions of the software such as differences in the menus. Ideally, on the first run of the software, the software could prompt users to pick their audio and video player. You can then stream episodes without having to download them. In my case, I changed the audio and video players to vlc. To stream an episode you must change the audio and video player (in Preferences) from default application to a specific application. By default, it’s true the stream option is greyed out. For example, new users to gPodder may think they have to download an episode before listening to it. ![]() There are a few idiosyncrasies in the software. More useful is gPodder’s search facility which is a boon in discovering new content. For example, the top entry “Linux Outlaws” stopped doing new shows in 2014. Accessing Subscriptions / Discover New Podcasts offers a curated Top 50 podcast list, although the choices aren’t ideal. And gPodder is particularly strong in this area. When you’re starting out in the podcast world, it really helps to have a client that makes it easy to discover interesting podcasts. The dark grey number indicates the number of podcasts downloaded for that particular feed. The light grey number shows the number of podcasts that have been downloaded which haven’t been listened to. I particularly like how feeds are appended by two numbered symbols. The interface is well-thought out and clean. The above image shows gPodder in operation. As the software is written in Python, you can run it from a source checkout. Normally I prefer compiling the source code of a project, but there’s no need with gPodder. I’m a fervent Manjaro user, and their community repository offers a convenient package for gPodder, which installed without a hitch. The developers of gPodder don’t produce packages for current releases citing a “… sorry state of packaging on Linux distributions, and incompatibilities even between e.g. For Linux users, most good distributions have packaged the software. The developers provides binaries for macOS and Windows with the latter getting a portable version too. GPodder is a cross-platform utility running on Linux, macOS, and Windows operating systems. The software is very mature it’s been in development since 2005. It lets you listen to podcasts on your computer or on mobile devices. The software package also includes a command-line interface which is called gpo. The software is written in Python and sports a simple GTK interface. GPodder is an open source tool that downloads and manages free audio and video content (“podcasts”) for you. |
