I went to see NiCE a while back, to check out their technology. They've got some interesting bio AI in there, and they're a fiery UK indie, happily running their own MMOG already out of the server room. I like that.

Tronji (30 x 30’) commissioned by BBC Broadcast for CBBC, is aimed at children aged 6-9 years. It involves two co-existing ‘worlds’: the Tronji world and the real world. The series blends live-action and real children within a CG-animated environment. It will engage and captivate pre-teens as they immerse themselves in the problem solving and detecting activities of the Tronji world, whilst watching real children solve the comical dilemmas presented in each episode.

Nice Tech will develop the Tronji MMOG using its breakthrough technology, AliceServer, which uses an innovative, biologically inspired, development philosophy to produce online virtual ‘worlds’. AliceServer creates virtual environments where the complex reality inherent in real environments can emerge.
