The JUMP - Massive Change in Mankind’s Direction
Friday Apr 10, 2009
According to the intrepid researchers at the Paranormal Investigation Experts (PIE) Network, strange events preceded many of history’s greatest developmental leaps in science, technology, and agriculture - a phenomena know as the JUMP. Recent sightings suggest that the next JUMP is quickly approaching!
Sound a bit strange? That's because it is. It's a game and a great way to have fun with friends and learn about Java FX in the process.
The game unfolds through a narrative focused on two characters, Baron Rude and Hector Macchiato who are quickly establishing themselves as the arbiters of all things paranormal on YouTube, the OSUM Community and other viral networks. The pair of nerds offer humorous analyses of paranormal sightings. These Paranormal Investigation Experts (or PIE Guys) are looking for evidence of legitimate paranormal activity to support their theory. Throwing everything we know about causation to the wind, the pair are convinced that recent sightings imply the next JUMP is quickly approaching. In order to prepare, they have created a website at PieTheory.com to track strange phenomena and debunk hoaxes.
We need your help following The JUMP and ensuring its arrival. You'll need to follow the clues posted to the OSUM PIE Network and review the research at the PIE Theory Network. There's lots of content so form a team to review the research and unlock the clues.
Get started by registering at the Pie Theory website and downloading the "Recruit Toolkit". You'll use JavaFX 1.1 and NB 6.5 to unlock clues, solve challenges, and help Baron and Hector make The Jump happen!
Have fun.
