Well considering that the robot the students were working on had bumpers so at least we can say bumpers confirmed...

So are you saying anyone who's on a FIRST team for artistic purposes should just go ahead and quit? FIRST as an organization should only pay attention to those "who will actually make it"

Re: Official FIRST STEAMWORKS Teaser and DLC Pack 1!

I thought the little robot on the left was interesting.

Also, the girl holding the cog-ball reminds me a lot of a past game piece. Also, why is she pointing to the robot on the chart? It's almost as if the bot will carry it.

As others have said too, the ramp/workstation are kind of awkward and definitely represent some game obstacle.

Re: Official FIRST STEAMWORKS Teaser and DLC Pack 1!

I'm interested to know why the clock reads 1:08 (or 13:08, or 1:07/13:07). I can't imagine that's a random time.

Apparently 1:08 in Mark goes
"I indeed have baptized you with water, but He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.”
Sooooooo that involves water, and steam can appear to be ghostlike ? Checking around for references to the other numbers

Why is there a clock?

I notice that the clock seems very dominant in this picture. The time on it shows what we believe is 1:08. Does anyone know what significance this has? Also my friend points out that it's in Roman numerals.

The number 108 is considered sacred in several eastern religions for a wide variety of reasons.

Re: Official FIRST STEAMWORKS Teaser and DLC Pack 1!

My guess is that it's 1:07 since the game is released on January 7th
