3D Printing and Video Games

This spring, game developer Holospark will be releasing Earthfall, a first-person co-operative shooter game set in a post-apocalyptic Pacific Northwest that has been ravaged by aliens.

As players battle the invading aliens, they're able to replenish their supplies by 3D printing them within the game.
