It has now been six weeks since I started on my second year of Game design and graphics program. Right now I have two courses Advanced game design and project management, and leadership. In Advanced game design, we have in recent weeks been playing and analyzing two board games and one roleplaying game in order to identify the systems that make the game work and the components are affected by them.
The games we played were:

The Lecture and the Post-Mortem.

So, it’s finally time to reflect on a lecture! Which I promissed to do in my previous post. This will be kind of a Post-Mortem of today’s work. So here we go!
This lecture (2013-10-07) with Adam Mayes wasn’t a regular just “sit, listen and take in” lecture. We were instead surprised with a small workshop! We could choose what ever game we liked, break it down to it’s core and analys the “Core Experience” to find out what makes that […]

Does games need to be complex in order to be fun?

Last week, we had an assignment in the course Advanced Game Design where we were supposed to play two board games and one role-playing game and write an analysis of them. I will not go into much depth about that, but after some thinking, I wondered if game needs to be “complex” in order to be fun to play. I’m gonna do some reflection over the board games that my group played.
Note that these opinions are my personal ones; not […]

I don’t get it

So I started two pages to represent two courses. I want them to be shown like posts but apparently the pages are not used as a form of categorizing system for posts but just wall of texts? Am I just using them wrong? Anyway until I figure it all out  people have to go into my different pages to see what I’m up to.. 🙁
