[PIGMI] PyConAU 2011 report

[Paul Turbett (Black Lab Games)]

Indeed!

I will be showcasing an alpha of the iPad port of my PSP game Star Hammer
Tactics. I'm hoping to get some feedback about the interface and the
gameplay in general. Like a focus test. Yeah. Hope you can make it....come
along and tell me why my game sucks!
