Classes, objects and the loop of life

As soon as I stood up this morning, and also the reason for why I got up that early, I immediately wrote down ideas for my current programming project. I woke up with so many great ideas for the program, thanks “sleep”! The program/game I am working on is as of today playable! It is a type of Sissy Fight (social game), so far it’s only playable by hotseat (players take turns on the same computer).
Also, today I have learned alot about […]

Working on the menu interface

Right, so the project we are working on right now has kicked off and we have assigned different tasks to our group members.
My task was to work on the ”menu” of the game and to draw up sketches of how said menu would look.
After that I’ve been left with three possible choices, since it’s sort of a ”Fantasy/sci-fi” type of setting.
My choices are now down to:
*Sci-fi menu with stars etc.
*Fantasy menu with a different type of writing and background
*Or try […]

Game design and life

This is my blog about games, studies and life. It will be a travel through my psyche, a depressing stroy of how I am going to see things from loving everything to hate everything. It dosen’t mean everything is bad, this is just how I see things.
Still I am a nice person.

First Blog Post Ever! Shit Just Hit the Fan!

So the purpose of the blogs, that all of the Game Design students have started, is for the lecturers and the coordinators to follow our progress through out the course. It is also for us to practice documenting our work and to practice our typing and communicating to ensure that communication with future coworkes goes smoothly.
So, with that settled, I guess that an introduction is due, but I’m not going to go the traditional route. A short and sweet presentation […]

A Brilliant, Shining New Blog! *Mint In Box.

And yes, so even I have come to create a blog I can call my very own.
It shall be filled with musings, ideas, dance and song! A feast for the mind, each and every word! Bring on the shandy, my good sirs!

Or at least with some hopefully interesting thoughts, ideas and such on topics like games, design and graphics.
My name is Christoffer and I’m a student of the Game Design – Graphics program at Uppsala University, campus Gotland (yes I […]

Working from a distance

I’m visiting my parents home in Värmland (located to the far east of the ancient Sweden) but rest assure I’m researching shmups during my stay. And don’t worry, I’ll be back by Sunday I started with Sine Mora, a modern side scrolling shooter where you take control of an airplane with the ability of bending time. The whole time bending doctor who whatnot made me shrug at the game ’cause to me shmups is about reflexes and precise movement. So I […]

My thoughts so far


‘Sup! So this is my first time blogging and I’m gonna reflect on various things throughout my game education, and provide my thoughts here. When I first found out that this kind of education was available it caught my attention right away. Games have always been a part of my life and I’m too attached to them to give up my dreams. But would I move to an island (Gotland) to study, that’s right, game design and programming? I […]
