Chris Sawyer and Atari(R) Announce Three-Year License Extension for Rollercoaster Tycoon(R) Source: UberStrategist May 22, 2017 09:00 ET Chris Sawyer and Atari(R) Announce Three-Year License Extension for RollerCoaster Tycoon(R) The New Deal Extends Long-Term Partnership Through 2022 for RollerCoaster Tycoon, One of the Best-Selling Franchises in PC Gaming History NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 22, 2017) - Atari®, one of the world's most recognized publishers and producers of interactive entertainment, today announced a three-year license extension for RollerCoaster Tycoon® through the year 2022. The new deal with RollerCoaster Tycoon creator, Chris Sawyer, reinforces the strength of the partnership and provides for investment and expansion of the series; the extension also applies to Atari's ancillary rights to the evergreen franchise. Chris Sawyer and Atari have been working together for almost twenty years and the extension reflects the vitality of their partnership. Since the late 1990s, Atari has published numerous games based on RollerCoaster Tycoon, one of the best-selling franchises in PC gaming history. From the first deluxe edition to the expansion packs, each RollerCoaster Tycoon game has built upon the park management simulation foundation while creating new and wild amusement park experiences. The extension comes on the heels of the recent success of two mobile games, RollerCoaster Tycoon® Classic™ and RollerCoaster Tycoon® Touch™. Released as a premium app on handheld devices in December 2016, RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic combined the best features from two of the most successful and beloved RCT games -- RollerCoaster Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. Launched in February 2017, RollerCoaster Tycoon Touch, an advanced 3D, free-to-play mobile game has been downloaded over 6.5 million times and quickly rose to the top of the charts after being featured on the App Store and Google Play. Atari will continue to provide ongoing support across its RCT titles and the extension will benefit players with additional investment and product development from Atari. "We are excited to extend our long-term partnership with Chris Sawyer," said Fred Chesnais, Chief Executive Officer, Atari. "RollerCoaster Tycoon has been a cornerstone of Atari's portfolio of games across multiple platforms and moving forward there will be more fun, engaging and enduring experiences to be added to the franchise."

  • Design of Roller Coasters
    Aalto University School of Engineering Master’s Programme in Building Technology Design of Roller Coasters Master’s Thesis 24.7.2018 Antti Väisänen Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Antti Väisänen Title of thesis Design of Roller Coasters Master programme Building Technology Code ENG27 Thesis supervisor Vishal Singh Thesis advisor Anssi Tamminen Date 24/07/2018 Number of pages 75 Language English Abstract This thesis combines several years of work experience in amusement industry and a litera- ture review to present general guidelines and principles of what is included in the design and engineering of roller coasters and other guest functions attached to them. Roller coasters are iconic structures that provide safe thrills for riders. Safety is achieved using multiple safety mechanisms: for example, bogies have multiple wheels that hold trains on track, a block system prevents trains from colliding and riders are held in place with safety restraints. Regular maintenance checks are also performed to prevent accidents caused by failed parts. Roller coasters are designed using a heartline spline and calculating accelerations in all possible scenarios to prevent rollbacks and too high values of accelerations, which could cause damage to riders’ bodies. A reach envelope is applied to the spline to prevent riders from hitting nearby objects. The speed and curvature of the track combined create acceler- ations that need to be countered with adequate track and support structures. A track cross- section usually consists of rails, cross-ties and a spine, while support structures can vary depending on height and loads.

  • My Two Cents on Tencent Marknaden Tencent Verkar På Främst Två Marknader
    My two cents on Tencent Marknaden Tencent verkar på främst två marknader. Gaming/Spel och Sociala nätverk. 2018 växte totala spelmarknaden med 13.3% YoY. Mobilspel växte med 25.5% och utgör idag 51% av intäkterna. Detta förväntas bara bli större. Marknaden väntas växa med 11% i snitt från 2012 till 2021. Digital marknadsföring utgör 45.9% av totala marknadsföringen. Totala marknadsföringsmarknaden växer med ungefär 3-4% per år. Digital marknadsföring växer självfallet snabbare och väntas växa med cirka 17.6% under 2019. I Kina utgjorde digital marknadsföring 65.3% av TAM (Total Adressable Market). Digital marknadsföring väntas växa med 11.08% CAGR mellan 2018 och 2022. Bolaget Tencent är det största bolaget i den globala spelindustrin sett till storlek och genererar 70% mer intäkter än den näst största spelaren. 2018 gick de om FB och tog tronen som världens största “social media”-bolag med ett börsvärde på 580 BUSD. Numera har Facebook återtagit tronen. Tencent sitter på en marknadsförings guldgruva. Bara cirka 20% av de totala intäkterna kommer från online marknadsföring. Jämför detta med Facebook som får 98% av intäkterna från online marknadsföring. Detta har att göra med att Tencent inte vill förstöra användarupplevelsen och självfallet för att de har så mycket intäkter från andra håll. De är inte ett “renodlat social media bolag”. Tencent bildades 1998 av Pony Ma och fyra vänner. Deras första produkt OICQ, som var ett gratis PC instant message program som senare döptes om till QQ, lanserades 1999. De lyckades få ihop en miljon användare första året men lyckades aldrig gå med vinst. 2001 lanserade de istället MobileQQ som då är en meddelandeplattform för mobiltelefonen.

    The $25 educational PC 5 May 2011, by Katie Gatto These small PC's, which would cost about $25 a unit, would be able to be furnished to each student, and have courses structured around their use. You may be wondering what kind of hardware students will be able to get for that cost? As it turns out, the offerings are pretty solid. The system features a 700MHz ARM11 processor, which is paired with 128MB of RAM. The system runs OpenGL ES 2.0, which will allow it to have a decent level of graphics performance. The system is already confirmed to have 1080p output. An SD card slot provides storage for this unit. This computer will be distributed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, which promotes computer science education in schools. There is no final word on when the devices will be available, but its developer hopes to be shipping them out in the next 12 months. (PhysOrg.com) -- Have you ever played Elite? More information: -- www.raspberrypi.org/ What about games in the Rollercoaster Tycoon -- BBC series, Thrillville, Lost Winds, or Kinectimals? If so, then you have enjoyed the work of David Braben. Mr. Braben is a fairly well known video game © 2010 PhysOrg.com designer, he also runs the UK development studio Frontier Developments, but soon he may be known as much for his hardware as he is for his software.
