As some of you may or may not know, Max Gaming and 21-6 Productions completed a project last summer that was entitled DimensionM. Now this wasn't any ordinary game, but an educational game that was designed to combine elements of traditional FPS gaming along with Algebra to play and solve puzzles. While MGT and 21-6 were primarily involved in the multi-player portion of the game, we were also contracted on to complete parts of the single-player portion of the game too, and I am proud to say we did all this on budget and on time.

Anyways that's not the point of this blog post. The actual reason why I am writing this is that today a study was released showing that kids who played DimensionM actually got higher Algebra grades than those who didn't (www.gamepolitics.com/2008/06/16/teaching-game-tech-powers-algebra-scores.

As someone who worked on the game this is a really awesome story to read to see that your hard work that you put into making the product has paid off.
