Traveling to Tallinn

Hello there little bloggy. I am going away on a “Jolly” which apparently is ” a trip, esp one made for pleasure by a public official
or committee at public expense”.
Me and my friend Philip are going to Tallinn where we are going to participate in different kinds of workshops on the subject of Non-linear story telling. I will try and give updates everyday on the different perspectives of Non-linearity but I am unsure how it will be in reality. I will try I promise you 🙂
We are currently sitting at Arlanda Airport waiting for […]

Fly or Die with Cellphone controls

Today Rasmus and I sat down to try and port the Cellphone controller mechanics with Fly or Die, after just 3.5 hours of messing with the old Fly or Die code we were able to actually get the controller to work. It’s not perfect, but it works as well as King of the Trill did with the same controllers. We tested it with 4 players and it works surprisingly well and not only that but we didn’t use that much […]

Math is not about memorization.

I’ve always had a bit paradoxical relationship with math. On one hand, i often find math both interesting and fascinating in the way it can do seemingly impossible things. To find numbers using a small subset of what you know, and solving problems that puzzle the brain has always been interesting to me. However, in most math classes, i, like most, have been bored out of my mind.
There seems to be the running paradigm of […]

Let the programming commence!

Started the programming course this Monday. We started with some basic loops and initiations and lastly we made a guessing game where the user guessed a number (1-100) and the game would give you feedback on how close you were to the the correct number. 
I have to say, I wished we would’ve started the course earlier, this is probably the most intellectual fun I’ve had in months!
SPOILER ALERT
Other than that I got into Attack on Titan this week. The narrative completely […]

Basics, a dungeon crawler and concrete examples

Good day peepz!
The programming course has started and I’m super exited for that! The first week has passed and the tempo seems fine. The course is teaching really basic things right now, but I learn stuff anyway. I guess it goes a bit fast for people who have never programmed before but if they keep coding every day and think it’s fun… then they will have no problem!
I’ve started creating a dungeon crawler in which I’m learning a lot about […]

Programming / Math

I see now that I haven’t blogged for a while. Reason for that is that I didn’t feel like I had anything to blog about. Still really don’t have anything to blog about except that we’ve started with c++ and math, and will have that for the next 9 weeks. At the first glance the math that we have now doesn’t look that terrifying, I thought that once you got to the calculating trigonometry that it would be difficult, I […]

Not so Pro, Gramming.

After several years of absence, I’m back on the saddle, giving programming another go. (I tried my hand at programming when I was studying at the Gymnasium)
The first thing that hits me is the skill level of the class. Although, the course is obviously geared towards people who are new to programming, it still feels like I’m left behind in the wake of all the veterans.
It feels like the learning curve is about to expload. I’m having a hard time […]

The End of Advanced Game Design and Serious Games

Now my two courses have come to an end.
I am quite pleased with both of my board games, now it’s only waiting to see if I passed or failed the courses. If you have any questions about any of the courses then feel free to ask
I am now embarking on different territory with Math and Programming, I will update when I have had my first classes.
