BGP: First post
Having started off Big Game Project it’s inevitable to do an info dump or two on it. Last week I designed and started modeling the three interchangeable weapons for the main character. We knew we wanted one light melee, one heavy aoe and one weapon for the ranged attack so the design kicked off from there. We also knew the game was going for a pun- and reference-heavy humor so designing weapons like The Banhammer (sledgehammer) or The Good Game […]

Big game project

This is Kei. Kei is a gamer and she loves all kind of games. But suddently she is not welcome in the GameTown anymore, neither are Kei’s […]

BGP week 2
Alright, week 2. This week I mostly focused on the jungle. I made vegetation assets like bamboo, grass and trees and some rocks that the player can pick. Most of these assets will probably be improved upon at some point but at the moment we just want to get as much props as possible to test the game. I also started creating the elevator the villagers use to travel between the jungle and the floating islands.

BGP week 1
So this week our class started our Big game project course. My group are making a game called Kalevala which is based on an old finnish national epic containing 50 different rune songs. I am responsible for character art. We are going for a quite simplistic style with inspiration from finnish artists such as Tove Jansson and Joseph Alanen.
Here are some of the concept sketches and early 2d characters I made 🙂

Big Game Project – Week 1
This post is a little late is we are soon starting week 3 but I’ll take it from the start. The first week we mostly talked about the game, trying to further define the concept.
So, our game is a top down(viewed from an angle, like WC3 or Diablo) strategi game mixed with the survival genre. It is a single player game, where you manage your village up on floating islands. The people of the planet bellow moved up to these […]

Big Game Project week 1
The time has come for a new game project! And just like last time I will blog about the progress throughout the development. In the coming weeks I will be working on a game concept called Kei which is about a girl that is not welcome in Game Town anymore and her struggle to get accepted in the town.
My role in this project will be as a 3D artist and I will mostly be working with the environment in the […]

BGP
Hello, good day or good evening!
Let me tell you about BGP (Big game project). It is the final and biggest course of this semester. It is almost like “Theme park”, the course we had about the same time last year when we made “Save the Penguins”. If you don’t know about it, you can read about it in earlier blog posts.

Big Game Project, week 1.
This week has been quite a rollercoaster as far stress goes. Last week, I pitched a 2 day game idea for a third year project, hoping to inspire someone to take me on in their group, but that didn’t happen.
It wasn’t until this Sunday that I contacted Nayomi and asked to be part of her group, to which she responded that she’d need to talk to her group on Monday in order to see what was needed.
Monday comes along and […]

Första veckan
Den här veckan har jag till störst del jobbat med karaktärerna för spelet Sam and Nicole. Tanken är att vi ska kombinera två olika typer av material, bakgrunderna ska målas i akvarell och skannas in och karaktärerna ska ritas i datorn men fortfarande se skissiga ut. Vi vill skapa ett nytt intresseväckande utseende och prova hur det blir att mixa två olika stilar.
För att få stilarna att ändå samspela har vi valt att använda få färger och mycket gråskalor. Bakgrunderna, som […]

Week 2 – BaseMesh and BaseAnimation
The second week in development have now passed.
The development in different areas for the game, whether it have been art or code have had quite a mixed progress.
On the art side, which is mine, we have begun to white-box a level to test various level layouts and see if the scale we are working in is adequate for the project, and if there are any mismatches. It would be quite funny looking if we had a chair for a giant […]
