Bear Animation

This week ive started with the bear walk animation for Big Game Project and will continue with the run animation as well.
At first I had to rig and skin the model which I did with 3DsMax. After the rig and skin is complete I exported it to Motionbuilder and started to animate the model.
I plan to first create a relaxed walk animation and after confirming if it works in the game I will make a relaxed run animation. For references […]

Day 1

Today I produced a simple grid with clickable squares and a couple of player “pieces” that are movable around this grid.After doing this I adapted the grid so that you’re only able to click the squares next to the player character (Up, Down, Left, Right) in order to make the grid movement akin to what’s intended for the final product.

There were some minor issues with the square-to-square movement acting weird, but it was resolved.(I figured out […]

Big Game Project – Week 1

Since Tumblr isn’t allowed anymore, here’s my new school blog! This time it’s gonna be about more exciting stuff than board games – our 10 week long Big Game Project course started last week, and I’m going to make weekly updates on what I’m doing, which is mostly going to be 3D modeling and texturing. 🙂
Our game is a past-paced arcade adventure, where you play as a (former) racing robot traversing different levels in a sci-fi landscape. As the player, […]

First Week of Big Game (Week 14)

Big game project has begun! I am the producer and level designer of our team Freshly Squeezed. We are making an adventure game, you are a robot and you pick up boosts to gain momentum forward. You use this momentum to traverse big open tracks.
We want to create a feeling of flow. We think games like Mirrors Edge and Sonic have good movement gameplay, but your speed is always stopped because of enemies that feel out of place (Mirrors Edge) […]

Last Week

Totemic

Last week the class got to divide itself into new groups for a new course to start making games for the Gotland Game Conference (GGC). Half of my old team is the same with the addition of one artist, one designer/artist and one coder. The theme of the GGC is unconventional controls and after completing “Terminal” we wanted to focus on keeping it simple and polishing it to perfection.
We started a few weeks before starting the course with brainstorming what […]

A bit from the 2D 2 assignment. Quick post!

 
This course ended two weeks ago, i failed one of the assignments, that was creating a storyboard to present a moment that would take place in a game. The first one was an animation but it failed, so i thought of making a storyboard from a story i posted earlier (Emely http://wp.me/s3Yksj-emely ).
So i did a quick storyboard and i finally passed. But now there is a reflective assignment left to do. (I edited the text dialog’s a […]

First week of Big game project

So the first week of Big Game Project, project that will eventually be on the GGC floor has started
The concept itself was not done during this week but has been iterated upon for several weeks beforehand so we knew exactly what to do once the course started, thus giving us more time in the production phase.
The concept is a fast paced adventure game where your avatar is a robot that is broken, for the player to move you have to […]

Big game is starting.

Prologue
This week the course “Big Game Project” started, during the weeks leading up to this project we’ve been working on a concept that Jonatan Keil proposed with the working title “Open Circuit” and thus the group Freshly Squeezed was created. The game is to be created in the Unity engine.
