Big Game Project: post 1

Time to bring this blog back to life now that me and six others are making a game that is to be presented at the upcoming Gotland Game Conference (GGC). The game is called “A Rat Betwixed” or just simply “Betwixed” as its full name was considered too long for a title. It takes place in the far future in a post apocalyptic Sweden where people has regressed to a socity that is similar to the medival age. It is a […]

Big Game Project first post

Officially the Big Game Project course started a dew weeks ago but unofficially work for many students began several months ago by way of the ”Road to GGC” As it was called which presented an opportunity for students who wanted to prepare for BGP early. A lot of time in my group was spent going back and forth between various concepts, many of them seeming like they could be interesting and worthwhile one day only to look unimpressive, boring or […]

BGP – Day 14

Clean up
It had to be done, I’ve spent today cleaning up folders and files from different unreal projects so that it is all more focused. I needed to prepare them since we are later going to share one project and it is important that I can find and share all my work in one project. What I’m thinking about to look into next is to get the fire to stick to the hand and also have that trigger the material […]

BGP – Day 13

Better late than never!
Well, its not a motto of mine, but last night I didn’t do my daily post. It wasn’t because I haven’t worked, rather the opposite. Since I have dwelled into a lot of subjects that I have never explored before, It can be very tiresome for the mind to try to remember all that new information. I decided to relax for the rest of the evening and prepare for the next day, as me and my girlfriend is going […]

First Week Of Production

CritterFlux is an idea me and my teammates had during a late night pokemonGO walk during the road to GGC. We were discussing our previous game which also was an android based but much bigger in scope. After a while of conversation we decided to pitch our new game concept and test the water and see how many would be interested. This was a hit and almost a couple of days after the pitch we had potential recruters and teammembers […]

vecka 1, karta och GPS

Första veckan med att jobba på spelet började med att vi satt och diskuterade på vad alla skulle jobba med under projektets första fas. Jag fick uppgift att fixa karta, vilket skulle vara Google maps, i liknande stil med Pokemon Go. Jag skulle även behöva få in GPS koordinaterna från Android enheten som spelet spelade på.
Det första som jag gjorde då var att söka efter hur man skulle kunna programmera detta själv och om det fanns några tips på hur […]

Introduction to Fast Gear.

Hello! My name is Daniel Qvarnemark and for the rest of spring I’ll be working as art lead on our Big Game Project, called fast gear, a racing game that also puts focus on the downtime between races where you’ll talk to other drivers, hold press conferences, etc…
Here I’ll write about my work-process atleast once each week, both for myself and for those interested.
Looking forward to it!
