Introduction to Zbrush

Starting this week, I’ll be studying the Zbrush course!
This is my second attempt at modeling a mouth, and this time I’m more prepared since I’ve watched through the majority of the videos posted on the school forums.
Instead of working directly on an unprepared box primitive, I followed our teachers video instructionsand began with the Cube3d tool.
Starting off, I focused on really nailing the creasing of the two lips by having a proper depth to it.

Day 2

By: Camilla von Paykull

It is the second day in the office. We are almost out of cookies.
Today we finally got our extra monitors, TV and keyboards and stuff, we just need more sockets so that we can plug all of them in and organise the office so we do not trip over the flying cords that for a labyrinth around the table.

I have spent much of the day working on our project plan which I have also […]

First week of Big Game Project

By: Anita Stenholm

For this course I was selected to be in a group that had already a concept of a 2D casual real-time top-down shooter, production name “MSSP”. The game is catered to players who’ve always dreamed of commanding their own spaceship, build their spaceship from scratch, travel through different solar systems and carry out missions.
The first week of MSSP was mainly focused on creating mood boards and mock-ups to get a greater picture of where we wanted to go artwise.
The moodboard […]

Getting Started

By: Camilla von Paykull

We had our first proper day of working on our project today and it has been a busy one. We started out with a morning meeting, going through what we want to achieve this week and what everyone were supposed to do today.
When that was done I had to sit with the lead programmer, going through the entire game so that we could fill in the backlog. For this project we are using Trello to manage our scrum, we are […]

First Day in the Office!

By: Camilla von Paykull

Today we started our Big Game Project where we will develop the game that we have designed throughout the year. We have had a couple of meetings, going through how we want to work, what programs to use and the schedule of the first week.
First day on the course meant getting our office spaces which we have been busy furnishing all afternoon with chairs, tables and screenwalls. Now we are missing some stuff that are on our wishlist, for instance […]

Mole Munch – Final build download

By: Sebastian Larsson

Hi!

On Friday 27/3/2015, the Introduction to game development course finally ended, and so did development on Mole Munch, more or less. There was a big playtesting session, and overall the reactions were very positive! There were several people playing for over 30 minutes in a row and then coming back to play again later, attempting to beat the top score for glory and candy. For anyone who tried it, thanks for playing the game, and maybe thanks for the great […]

Week 9 of Spelutveckling, introduktion. Balancing week.

This week I have primarily balanced the game, as well as cleaned up the design document for a second hand in.
Above you can see the image from the game design document that explains the game state and UI, with the final map. Below is an excerpt from the game document explaining the level design.

The three lanes are there to funnel the enemies towards the life tree, and helps establish that the life tree is where you should keep your […]

Sticky Situation

By: Nayomi Arvell

I forgot to tell you about our game “Sticky Situation” that me and two others created at a game jam! It is a side scroll, co op game. You work as two balls of slime with opposite gravity. They have to stand on top of objects or one other to not fall into some deadly wall of spikes or some other danger. One character is controlled with the usual “ASDW” – buttons and the other with “JKLI” -buttons on […]

Creating the sounds of crystalline entities dying

By: Anders Hagström

Ever since the start of this project we were talking about a death sound effect for our enemies. However, as the original design used player attack FX as additions to the soundtrack it wasn’t feasible to have the enemies make any sounds when hit. Because of the recent redesign into a more traditional shooter however, the time was now ripe for some crystal shattering FX.
To imagine how sentient, murderous crystalline invaders hit by a burst of sonic waves and shattering […]
