Week 9: Completion of Space Shooter Project

This week we have finally completed the space shooter project. All in all, the week has been pretty uneventful. Most of the time has gone to working on the pitch, where we would show off our work and try to sell it to our classmates, as they are the ones who will decide which games to actually develop later on. Our pitch I felt was quite successful. Other than that, work went into the One Page and Concept Document. On […]

Click through to view the one page design we made for our space shooter, Day of the Piñata:

The picture is absolutely massive.
This is the last day of the project, and it feels good. We have handed in our one page design and our concept document, and I have also handed in my personal project report. So everything’s done! What a trip it was.
Overall I’m pleased with my contribution to this project. I have drawn a lot during the past few […]

3D – Wolf character

A little while ago I started working on a character model for school. The assignment was to first choose concept art of a character and give it a backstory. After pre-production you are to make a low poly with a good organic edgeflow, maximum 3k tris. It is then to be UV mapped and textured at a 1024×1024 resolution so you’re really limited with both tris and resolution.

I haven’t completed my model yet but I believe I’m well on my […]

3D Course – Assignment 3 Update

This is an update post for assignment 3, and since the deadline is just in a few days and I’m a bit behind, I’m going to keep this very brief.
This is the final model for the character JigTick, a sand goblin.
(created by Max http://maxmaekvidya.wordpress.com/)
It’s been a bit troublesome to model this fellow, due to his unusual legs and seperate parts, but I think I managed to get it right. Organic modelling has been a lot more […]

This is my last week!

Hello again!
As you probably have understood this is the last week. Not of the education, of course, just this course. Introduction to Game design & Game Analysis is soon to be over. This have been a really interesting, fun and educational course. I have learned a lot in a short amount of time!
As said before, we are on our last assignment which have been a 5-week long group assignment where we were supposed to create a game with 2 theme […]
