2D

This week i started a new course and it is a 2D drawing class. I cant say i was very excited to do that as im very bad at drawing. But lucky enough it has gone allright so far, it is a very basic one to begin with, but very fast paced. So far we have worked with live models to sketch poses like a stick figure. Then we added more volume to it and added a body, arms and […]

bad week?!

The 3D course started yesterday. As of tradition I had to head up to help desk to sort something with my laptop. This caused me some delay in getting started. I left the laptop after class for maintenance and picked it up early so I could try to catch …

2D-graphics

This week we have started our course in 2D-graphics. We have started drawing with the help of models. I have been worried about starting with this as I have no previous experience with it, but after two days of doing it, im starting to feel less concerned. For now I’m going to practice and await the first assignments!

Sketch Dump 5

This is going to be my last sketch dump for a while. I’m currently working on getting a portfolio done which means that I will focus most of my energy on doing digital work. Some of these sketches will return in digital and fully rendered form eventually, but I can’t say when.Peace out!

Game Ideas: Battle for Hildgaard the Collectible Card Game (CCG)

Battle For Hildgaard
Hello everyone.
I want to introduce you all to Battle for Hildgaard, a collectible card game I’m currently thinking about, alot. It would be a regular CCG in that you collect cards and build decks of them. Put there are two points that would make the game a more enticing experience. Firstly how players would build decks and secondly it’s how the game is played.
Building Decks
In a regular CCG you have about 60 cards in your deck, and with these cards […]

Post mortem

Assignment
In our course Advanced game design we were tasked with making a board game in four weeks time. My group included five people:
Joar Hedvall
Linus Johansson
Magnus Jinneskog
Petter Vernersson
Viva Ivarsson
Concept
When making our concept we started off by brainstorming different themes that we liked. We did this by taking turns of say random words and themes that we wrote down. Once the paper was full we read it out loud and marked the words we liked. One of the themes that we all […]

Crunch time!

We, or at least I believed that we would have whole this week to work on our board game, but that wasn’t the case. Luckily I managed to finish the wizard tower during the weekend and therefor I had two days to play test our game and focus on drawing the loot cards.

On Monday we play tested our game for the last time, trying out an old method once again. What we did was to […]

Realism will give us better narratives, right?

As mentioned in a previous post, I would post my speech for my Communication class (but translated into English). Warning! This text acted as a script for me during my speech, so it’s not optimized to be read, in a deep hipster kind of way. The translation process took place after spending 2 days writing my report for our Major Assignment = my brain is mushy…

Will Realistic Graphics Give Us Better Narratives?

The next generation of consoles are just around the […]
