Turtle Flip Studio :

Sydney, Australia - November 15, 2024 | The team at Turtle Flip Studio are excited to reveal that they'll be attending MACSCON, run by the student society Macquarie Association of Computing Students (MACS), in Sydney, Australia, to help demonstrate game development to aspiring students.


MACSCON is a conference organised by the Macquarie Association of Computing Students (MACS). The purpose is simple: to bridge that gap between students and industry. The solution is by creating a dynamic space where students can show off their talent and potential to the industry, and where industry can display their visions and developments.


MACSCON strives to foster meaningful connections, inspire future career paths and contribute to the growth and development of both individuals and to the greater industry.


Attendees can expect hands-on workshops, dynamic talks from industry leaders and student showcases.


This all comes at a time where Which Way Up: Galaxy Games is in its final stretch of its Kickstarter campaign, to which they just received the Project We Love badge. Which Way Up: Galaxy Games currently has a demo available on Steam, so you can play it right now.


Which Way Up: Galaxy Games is scheduled to launch in early 2025 on Steam and Nintendo Switch. For more information, be sure to follow the game's development on Twitter (X), Instagram and TikTok, all @WhichWayUpGame, and chat with the developers by joining the Discord.


About Which Way Up: Galaxy Games

Which Way Up: Galaxy Games is a family friendly party game that gives unique freedom of movement by allowing you to run on walls and ceilings, orbit around planets, or fall across entire levels by manoeuvring through gravity fields.

Before The Universe existed, the Celestial Space Sprites banded together one-by-one to see a dream come to fruition: the dream of life itself. As The Universe began to take shape, so too did space. But space is unpredictable, and creating life is tiresome work. So, the Sprites took it upon themselves to create a pastime. The Galaxy Games.

Each event features its own unique bite-sized challenge where up to 4 players can compete. Eject your friends into space as you race across gravity fields, score a goal with an entire moon, leap across planets to escape a black hole, and capture and hold zodiacal constellations.
