Portable Fragging with PocketC.H.I.P.!!!

Hey C.H.I.P.sters!

As promised, we made time for some more PocketC.H.I.P. demo action. Over the last few days, we’ve been stress testing the PocketC.H.I.P. prototypes and we’ve finally found the perfect test: PocketC.H.I.P. running QUAKE 3!!!

Quake 3 or more specifically IOQuake3 with the Open Arena content pack is a great way to see the real power of PocketC.H.I.P. and it’s completely free and open source!

Take a look!

Brought to you by: the power of AWESOME open source projects!

Getting IOQuake up and running was amazingly straightforward thanks to these great open source projects:

Up Close with PocketC.H.I.P.

Howdy Chipsters!

We finally had the chance to show off PocketC.H.I.P. over the last two weeks and seeing people’s reactions has been spectacular.  We’ve been stoked about PocketC.H.I.P. for some time and want to make sure everyone gets to see a demo.  For those that haven’t had an opportunity to see PocketC.H.I.P. in person, we’ve added a PocketC.H.I.P. demo video to our campaign page as well as a behind the scenes look at design process behind PocketC.H.I.P.

Take a look and let us know what you think!
