Semantics and semiotics

Ok, so let’s talk about design.
C.S. Peirce, American philosopher and founder of pragmatism, defines the semiotic sign as ”something that stands for something, to someone in some capacity”
This concept is straight forward enough, if I play Batman Arkham Origins and I want to continue the story I look for the sign on the map that tells me where to go next. It is a sign, that stands for ”story continues here”, to me in the capacity of player.
But wait, then […]

Catching Up!

Allright so now my blog should be up and running! Interesting, new concept for me.
September 1st i got on the ferry from Stockholm, capital of Scandinavia, to Visby, Gotland.
I barely had the time to go pick up the keys to my appartment and load in all my things before i had to head down to Wisby Strand Congress Hall for a warm welcome to my new university. We were greeted with a number of great, inspiring speeches and a fantastic […]

My First Post!

Hi!
My name is Johan Holmér and I’ve recently started studying game design and programming at Uppsala Univerity, campus Gotland. Here I will post stuff that somehow is related to my education, either things that I’ve created or if I think that I’ve learned something that is worth posting here.

The first couple of weeks has been very interesting and I’m starting to view games in a totally different way.
We’ve learned how to break games into its core parts by analyzing Space […]

3D I, Week 3, Part 1: Crate Cleanup

This week in 3D we went through cleaning up construction errors in a model. In this blog, I’ll recap and reflect on the Wednesday workshop, where we passed our crate models from last week around for other people in class to clean up.

First I had a look at my cartoon crate from last week.

My cartoon crate, before cleanup.

This crate is incredibly simple. I made it just by creating a box, making extrusions in the center, then moving and resizing […]

3D week two!

Theme one:
I decided to pick cartoony for my first theme. The cartoon style is usually comprised of very simplified objects and shapes, often accompanied by a very happy and colorful color scheme. Objects in cartoon games are normally exaggerated in size, usually bigger than in real life. Cartoon styled games are often directed towards teenagers and children.

A game which I think fits into the cartoon category is Battlefield Heroes. Even though the object of the game is to run […]
