Sneaky Ninja – Art director – First post

This will be my first blog post as the Art director in the group Sneaky Ninja. We was one of the latest groups to be created so we have had one week less to work than most groups.

We had a small meeting on Sunday the 6th of April where we talked about the concept and discussed ideas. We started working the […]

Personal – Free 2 Play – A short reflection

We had all played “Jungle Speed” and really liked that concept and we discussed if we could recreate the feeling when playing that game.
I’ll Explain in short what Jungle Speed is for those who do not know:
In jungle speed a […]
