Bullet Physics Contest Winners

Edit Link

It looks like I was quite late with posting that voting for the Bullet Physics Contest had started. Only one day later Erwin already mails me with the results ;-) I can't say I'm surprised by the results, but congratulations to all the participants are in order - you created a great showcase for the Blender game engine and for the Bullet Physics Library!

Radiance: Blender FPS goes Pro

Edit Link

Radiance screenshotAll those nice little (and sometimes unfinished) games made with Blender's game engine that can easily be found here and there in the community's forums are really a good way to start learning and to show off what Blender is capable of in the game-design panorama, but what about a real game, with professional looking graphics and a gameplay longer than 2/3 minutes?
