Brainstorming about Understanding board games project
Today my group and i brainstormed about the upcoming group project where we are to create a boardgame from scratch.
First of we threw out random aesthetic words just to get started, we ended up with words like feeling accomplished, lonlyness, fear, despiration, paranioa.
After that we took some of the woords and try to give them some contex in the form of gameplay and how the game would play.
We thought of you being desserted on a island with other players and you where […]

Board Games
These past weeks I have worked with boardgames with my group, We were assigned to play three boardgames at least three times each. So we could get a clear view of the strength and weaknesses in the games. Through that we were also supposed to decide what the core system was and what the best system was and etc…
We played these games with ease and could easily decide what the answer to the questions were and work from there.
It was […]

Post Mortem – Core Mechanics and Team 8
During the first weeks of our studies, we we’re put into several groups of about seven people. These groups/teams were supposed to work together on, as far as I understood, all group assignments and projects over the first year. I was part of Group 6, which according to me really was a dream team. We worked well together, everyone spoke their mind freely and everyone had great ideas that we all pretty much agreed on, ideas that truly worked in […]

Major Assignment
Our major assignment for the introduction to game analysis and game design course is to design a space shoot ’em up game that is supposed to be inspired by the words romantic and pencil. I did find those words rather difficult to incorporate into that genre, I first thougt the only thing you could do was something with pencils, either being one or shooting them, and writing love letters.However I thought it would probably be really boring and way to […]

Postmortem on the Reverse Prototyping Workshop
Yesterday, on October 7th, we had a quick lecture on reverse prototyping. After that we got about two hours to analyse any digital game, take out the core mechanics from it, to make a paper prototype using those mechanics. We did this in order to learn how to create certain aesthetics of a game. This is my postmortem of our paper prototype game.
The Game We Chose
So we picked out The Walking Dead, the video game. It is a heavily story-based […]

Group 12
We have now gotten our groups for designing a game. And we got the words, interesteing and suit, to work with. It wassent the easiest words to work with but we landed on a game were you are gonna make a suit by making the individual parts, by flying with a machine that sew it all togheter. While you do it, moths and other things will try to eat the cloth. So you will have kill them by shooting them.

Got some work done!
I was working on a sword for a while in 3DSMax that did no quite work out and because of that, I had to start over.
A few days have passed and I’ve actually managed to create a new sword from scratch and I’m quite happy with the result so far.
All that needs to be done now is to properly texture it. (I think)

”Sky in a pond”?
One might wonder what that means, and indeed it is up to each of your interpretations. Whatever conclusion you may come to though, you can refer to me as simply ”Sky”!
Now who is this ”Sky” person? To be perfectly honest, I have no idea. There have been times when I’ve thought I knew myself, just to be slapped across the face by life and all it’s wonderful and horrible experiences. They change us, for good or for bad, and […]
