First week! Space Invaders and D&D!

The first school week has come to an end, though I’ll probably be looking into more stuff this weekend. We were at the beginning of the week assigned to analyse the retro game Space Invaders and describe its different objects with properties, behaviors and relationships. We were supposed to look at it in a perspective as a designer, and I must admit I was struggling a bit. I have been coding for a couple of years now and I can’t really […]

Hello there fellow Internet user!

My name is Sven Almberg and I have just started studying Game Design And Programming at Uppsala Uni, Campus Gotland. It’s the first time I’ve ever been to Gotland and I must say it is incredibly beautiful here, it really went way past my expectations. I grew up in a small village in Sweden… or I should say 4 kilometers outside the village… in the middle of nowhere. Though the surroundings there is beautiful I must say that Gotland and Visby […]

First week of 3D, Analysis

A picture analysis with the help of some “elements of art”
Evil within Line: Most of the lines are vertical by looking at the trees, this gives us a feeling of inferiority. For example if we have to look up towards something or someone we feel small, things that are above us tend to feel more powerful. This can be seen through pictures taken of a person from a down-top perspective. We can also see that the tree branches […]

The first assignments, done and done!

Assignments:

Analyze the exciting game ‘Space Invaders’.
Learn how do generate a character in the roleplaying game ‘D&D 5th Edition’.

The first written assignment is about breaking down the game into objects, and the objects properties. And of course the relations between all of the objects.
Some examples of objects in that game is: Player Craft (The ship you are playing), Enemy crafts (The ships that are trying to kill you) and the missiles you are shooting etc.
And the property-section of the assignment is […]

Game design first post

Spent the class today trying to figure out how to fill in a Dungeons and Dragons paper, which turned out quite good after some supervising in class. The exercise for Spaceinvaders will be handed in later today.

Introducing my new blog

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to my new blog! This is just an introductory post so I’ll keep it short and sweet.
During the upcoming years, I’ll be posting the projects regarding my studies about game design and programming.

Starting the second year!

New year and new knowledge incoming, for this year i have put main focus on learning 3D, so for that i have chosen 3 different 3D courses (this concern different areas, modeling, texturing etc).
I was hoping to blog during the summer but i had too much on my plate, but in between the heavy work and striving to achieve other goals, i sat down with a paper and pencil drawing different pictures to keep learning.
I haven’t used my computer for […]
