Ambient Pressure: the Diver

By: Emma Fredriksson

Our game is about a diver who is on a mission to find out what is going on with the underwater life in a specific place; there has been sightings of mutated fish. The goal is to dive down to this sunken ship and collect as much samples as needed to test what is really going on down there. There will also be angry mutated fish, which you can not kill easily (not by yourself, at least); but tricking them is easily […]

Winter and early spring in Visby

By: Alexander Nordfors

I take a couple of walks now and then here in Visby, as long as the weather is alright.
Here are some pictures taken on January 24, showing the snow-covered walls and buildings.

Here is a photo-collection taken during February 8, showing Visby in all its splendor.

Last Signal – Player Movement

By: Anton Classon

One of the gameplay elements that I have worked on for The Last Signal is the players movement.

The player moves around the game’s map by engaging the characters thrusters by pressing the A- and D-keys. The A-key engages the left thruster and the D-key engages the right one. This means that the player will turn right when pressing the A-key and vice versa. If both keys are pressed down the character will start accelerating in the direction they are […]

Space Shooter Project Blog: Post #1

By: Marcus Franzén

So, the construction of our space shooter is now on its fourth week. Initially the group I was working with, team 14, was split and I along with two of my team members were reassigned to team 5. In this group we decided to take the space shooter concept of another group, namely the ”Last Signal” concept. To quickly summarize, the concept was about the player taking the role of a scientist on a space ship that became infested with […]

The Last Signal – Astronaut Design

By: Emil Lindgren

This is my first concept of the player sprite for the game The Last Signal. We were going for a bulkier shape, something towards an oldschool diving suit or the austronaut suits used in the moon landings with a little tweek. This design decision was made due to the fact that the game is about a ship pursuing in the name of sience and are doing research and the trevelers need a suit that can protect them in extreme […]

Designing the basic beat for Dragon’s Song

By: Anders Hagström

The first 3 weeks of the game development group assignment is over and my Team 16 has started to get into the groove with a working engine and the most essential art and FX assets in place for our pre Alpha milestone this Thursday.
This has been my first opportunity to take the helm of the Sound & FX department in earnest and actually produce some sounds. The first semester was highly theoretical and conceptual which left little room for me […]

Designing enemies for a space shooter game

By: Thom Hujanen

I am working on a space shooter game together with five other people. It is a music game about a dragon named Riff that cannot spit fire. Instead she can spit sound waves to create music. The other dragons are bullying her for that. But justice will come! When the planet is invaded by strange crystal beings, the dragons’ only hope are the sound waves that only Riff can create.
My role in the project is producer and graphic artist. Right now […]

Speldesign #1

By: Folke Stövring Nielsen

Jag har arbetat med animation till vårt spel. I tidigare kurs (spelprogrammering 1) så lärde vi oss hur man kan använda sig av ett sprite sheet så att man kan spela upp olika bilder med under en tid. Så det jag har gjort är att jag lärde mig från en tutorial från internet hur man skrev koden och sedan använde jag mig av den för att kunna spela upp en animation. I vår tidigare kod så kunde man kalla på […]

Game Development Log 1.

By: William Persson

This post will be about a specific artifact in our game, Fancy Mansion.
Specifically, the design-choices and drawing of the moneybag, used as an item to be picked up to increase the players overall score in the game.
Fancy Mansion is a game about picking things up and increasing your own monetary value by stealing items. In order to represent a valuable items, first of all we chose iconic objects to symbolize this. The first object, the most basic design, was a […]

Green Warden: Week 4 – player character animation

By: Tova Svensson

I didn’t update my blog last week, apologies! Things have been very busy lately.
This week I’ve been working with animating the player character.
The player character is a dryad whose goal is to protect the forest where they live. The forest is being invaded by goblins who wants to destroy everything and build factories there instead. They want to destroy the life tree, which is the source of life of everything in the forest. As the dryad, you don’t have any […]

Week 4 Game Development.

By: Emil Christenson

It is pre-alpha week. The team has been working hard to make our MVP for this weeks deadline. The main point of the MVP is to show the core mechanics. As MVP do not really need fully animated sprites I did not have any pressure on me. Although being ahead of schedule is always a good thing.
Today I made the animated sprite for our main character the mole.

So here is the walking animation for the mole. The perspective of […]
