Big Game Project – Week 2

This week I worked on designing the gods for the temple. The temple will have in total 5 gods, each level is designed after a god, and also each god will have their own statue in the game. Also started planning out the visuals for each level and started sculpting on the gods this week. There was also our first internal testing of the game where the whole team sat down and played through the game.

Third week of Big Game project

 
This week has had its up and downs. Some days the work has been really slow and some the day has gone by in a blink of an eye.
My planning for this week was to create the Commander for the game. The scope of this project was to create a Commander with a resource system that can place new structures on the map. To get this to work I had to create some assets. I created a building that […]

Week 3, E.R.A, Daniel Svensson

Week 3

This week has been an unrelenting wait for our internal Alpha to be completed. It is hard for us to continue in our design process before we have something playable and to that effect I have focused more on the production side this week except for one thing (see below). 

During our pre-production I decided we would update our Agile working method by using two new tools, Trello and Microsoft project. These two tools in combination would handle the macro […]

The group met up Tuesday the 8’Th for the first time and discussed how we wanted to approach working on the project and how we wanted to divide the work tasks between the members.

But this week i have worked on the levers that are going to be in the game, i managed to get most of the code done for them, i just need the graphics and the animations to finish it off. […]

Project Clint Weekly Roundup – April 12-17

This weeks round-up post comes a bit early because it’s Easter and all what that means.
Sitting with UnityWhile not complementing previous courses, I’ve sat more and trying to learn myself the Unity game engine. I’m starting to get a hang of how the engine and the  scripting system and such is working, although this will probably be a constant process as the development goes along. I feel ready to start working for real next week.
Talking to teachersI’ve been talking to […]

Week 3 – UnityNetwork again

This week I made a revelation when it comes to network programming. Turns out it’s really really easy. Actually the revelation part happened on Saturday, so I had to set myself down and do some programming, so during the weekend I made a starting menu where we can select to start a server or connect as a client. As you can see in the screenshot below:

So the whole idea was that you have one dedicated server and then you […]

I came here with a heavy interested in arts and didn’t really understand what game design was to be honest. I’ve come to learn obviously what it is and come to […]
