NEWS FEED

CREATURE NEWS Students in South Australia have discovered a new wasp species! Wow! Ramco Primary School students in the ‘Insect Investigators’ research project were taught how to catch insects in a special malaise trap by Dr Erinn Fagan-Jeffries at The University of Adelaide. The students caught the wasp in April and sent the insect to Dr Erinn to study. The wasp, of the genus Glyptapanteles, will be officially named by the students! TECH NEWS An Australian battery recycling company called Envirostream has developed a way to repurpose old alkaline batteries and create fertiliser! While trying to find a more environmentally-friendly solution for batteries, Envirostream realised that zinc and manganese (found in alkaline batteries) are required as trace elements in fertiliser. The company is currently trialling their fertiliser on field crops…

SUPER skilled

THE OG HANDYMAN In 1981, a carpenter named ‘Jumpman’ was introduced in Donkey Kong. Four years later, he starred in his own game, Super Mario Bros., and the character became Mario, the heroic plumber that we all know today! THE DOCTOR In 1990, Mario decided to take on deadly viruses in puzzle game, Dr. Mario. There have been a few Dr. Mario games since, including a mobile game released last year! THE KARTING KING When protecting the Mushroom Kingdom wasn’t enough of a challenge, Mario put pedal to the metal to compete with friends (and foes) in kart races. Starting with Super Mario Kart on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1992, there are currently 14 Mario Kart themed games! THE SPORTS STAR Mario isn’t just a karting pro; he’s…

COOL CREATOR

THE FIRST DRAWING THAT I REMEMBER DOING WAS... A possum in kindergarten. I was scribbling by the time I could hold a pencil, but I remember drawing the possum. What’s significant wasn’t what I drew, but being told it was good by the teacher. For a kid with low self-esteem, being told that was really important. MY ART STYLE IS... Super cartoony! I can draw ‘serious’ stuff, but it never feels quite ‘me’. MY FAVOURITE MEDIUM TO USE IS... A Wacom drawing tablet! I just love it. I generally use Photoshop. Since the start of last year I‘ve gone completely digital. I love the freedom of different brushes. If something doesn’t work, I can change it. MY CAREER HIGHLIGHT HAS BEEN... Working on The Simpsons comic. I went to San…

HIGH FIVE TO PS5

STARK CONTRAST It totally makes sense that both PlayStation 5 consoles look like a miniature high-tech Stark Tower. One is the disc-packed standard, and the other is digital and discless. All the tech beneath the hood means super gorgeous gaming. Your games will look better than ever in 4K, and will load faster than ever before. So, less time loadin’, more time ’sploding! SOUND CHOICE The sweet images on this page show off all the incredible views the PS5 will bring, but putting your ear to the mag won’t help you understand the sound quality. The PS5’s sound will be as amazing as the visuals. Next-gen 3D sound makes 4K 3D games even more fun, and that amazing sound is made even better with the PS5’s Pulse 3D wireless headset!…

DREAMWORKS TROLLHUNTERS: DEFENDERS OF ARCADIA

It’s not every day that you get to play a game with Lord of the Rings-style trolls, Avengers-style aliens, and Harry Potter-style wizards. Magically bridging all of those fan fave, fun-filled, fantasy and friends is DreamWorks Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia. Phew. The game is linked to the Trollhunters trilogy, but Defenders of Arcadia tells its own new Trollhunters tale. If you’re a fan of the show, you will find plenty to love, but any gamers who aren’t as familiar with the series will also have a lot of fun! Defenders of Arcadia has the tall task of linking the trilogy series into one big, wholesome Trollhunters world. We love that the stars from the series voice the characters in the game. That’s right, the same voice actors will be speaking…

SKATER XL

Dive into sick skating tricks without diving face-first into the pavement you skate on. While you are on the skateboard, push your right foot in. Pull your left foot out... Drop your body weight in, then flip the board about. It’s not the hokey-pokey, but Skater XL has plenty of turning the deck (and yourself) around. That’s what it’s all about! Your skater feet are individually controlled with the thumbsticks, for complete board control. The aim of this game is to totally shred some seriously tight tricks. Radical! There’s a solid stack of skating stunts for you to try out and mess around with, but avoid the bad stack... AKA trying to fly without your board. You can even jump into the talented kicks of renowned pro skaters, or customise…

WICKED WHEELS

BRICK BUGATTI! After the LEGO Technic design team completed a 1:8 scale model of the Bugatti Chiron, the team decided to base the first fully-functional, self-propelled LEGO Technic car on the same model! This 1:1 LEGO Bugatti Chiron is the first large model powered using LEGO Technic Power Functions motors, the first non-glued LEGO Technic model of such complexity, the first large-scale moving model using LEGO Technic bricks and elements, and the first time creating load-bearing parts built purely out of LEGO Technic bricks and elements. Over 1,000,000 LEGO Technic elements were used in total (including 339 types of LEGO Technic elements) and the build weighed 1500kg. This design was the first to use 58 new types of Technic custom-made elements, and was the first build to create new types…

Fold that triangle in half to form a crease, then unfold to return to the larger triangle. 2 THINK OUTSIDE THE FOX Take the bottom corners of the triangle (on either side of the crease), and fold those bottom corners to meet the apex. The edges of the fold should align with the crease. 3 KIT CRAFT Fold this new square in half along the middle crease you made in Step 1, to make another new triangle!

FAST FOUR WITH COCO K-Z: Hey Coco! Why did you start your group, Coco and the Cockatoos? C: I was finding it hard to play the piano during my music lessons because of my cerebral palsy, so I started singing. I asked Jane Walker, a songwriter, to help me write a song, and we wrote 10 songs. We loved the songs and decided to record an album. I started to write songs three years ago, and then Coco and the Cockatoos officially started a year ago. K-Z: What was the best part of making the songs for the Wild Life album?…

KARTRIDER RUSH+

There is an art to making a kart racer that roars at top speed, rather than sounding like a fart. KartRider Rush+ is def a soarer, not a snorer. You won’t be drifting off to sleep in Story Mode – but you will be drifting your way through tyre-skidding corners. Your top-gear goal is chasing down Turbo Crystals in 16 unlockable worlds and each new racing location is packed with top-tier tracks. You will need to get used to pushing the kart sideways through corners. Skid enough to rev the Nitro Bar from no-boost empty to full-speed gold and ready to fly. Tap the Quick Boost for a top-speed push when you need it, then save your pedal-to-the-metal Nitro to tear up tracks on the straights. Once you have mastered…

AMAZING ACTOR While Taika Waititi is a masterful maker whose work behind the camera has been a huge success, the New Zealand star is also a major on-screen talent.

The basics of golf are pretty EZ. Take the stick. Hit the ball at the hole with the stick. Hopefully get the ball to the hole in a few hits. What The Golf? takes the basics and makes it wacky. The courses are straightforward, but the results are hilarious. No need to sink the ball, just hit the flag. Simple, right? Next level, you might wind up and the golf club could go flying. The golfer might bounce off towards the hole. Suddenly you might be hooking a house. There are often obstacles in your way. Mind the trees, rocks and, uhh... cats. Yeah.
