Pwning the Swedish Game Awards!
Oh, you didn’t attend the Swedish Game Awards Ceremony 2013?
Let us fill you in: there were 95 entries from almost every game education in the country this year. Three teams from Gotland University.
Guess how many of ours were awarded?
All of them!
Read that again with me. All. One hundred percent success rate. One, zero, zero percent.
Our slightly disturbed game design maestro, Marcus Ingvarsson, were so kind as to record the proceedings. Here’s his compilation of the important bits – […]

Gotland Game Conference 2013 coverage
Inte bara för unga vita män Temat för årets Gotland Game Conference i Visby är hur spelvärlden ska kunna bli mer inkluderande och tolerant när det gäller kön, ras, och sexuell läggning.
tap-repeatedly: Trip Report from the Gotland Game Conference
[…] if you want to hear from many other smart people, it’s worth it to check out the entire speech archive! I would say every speech was worth hearing; highlights include Heidi MacDonald […]

GGC 2013, photos and more!
We’re particularly proud of this year’s GGC.
Not only did we cover the very important issue of gender inequality in the industry, with a view on solutions, we also delivered such high quality student games, we’re sure to clean up at the Swedish Game Awards.
To try and summarise the presentations would require a post that is very tl;dr. So why not move over to our YouTube Channel and watch them all. You should do them in order, because […]

Banner!
Jag sitter fortfarane och leker fram en banner till vårt spelprojekt! Efter en hel del konsultering av hur gruppen vill ha den har jag jobbat fram en version jag tror de alla blir nöjda med.Massor med arbete återstår att göra inom de närmaste få dagarna! …
Nytt Projekt!
Då var det dags för en ny uppdatering, det var ett tag sedan sist och mycket har hänt! Det förra projektet blev bättre efter en massa slit i sista minut! Spelmekaniken blev finputsad och buggarna blev fixade, att ha med ett highscore-system gjorde spelet …

Ernest Adams nails his dissertation!
In February, after nearly 18 years of thinking and writing about interactive storytelling (as well as a good many other topics), I received a Ph.D. in that subject from the University of Teesside in the UK. My thesis is called Resolutions to Some Problems in Interactive Storytelling, and it’s a retrospective and analysis of the papers and lectures I’ve given over the years. In this month’s column, I’m going to summarize a few of my conclusions.

Game Developers Conference
Adam Mayes is such a shameful fanboy. His enthusiasm for USA, San Francisco and the “real” GDC has been diabetes inducing – long ago triggering the predictable counter-reaction in yours-trolly.
I am willing to admit now though that the man was right about GDC. I can’t remember leaving a session of GDC Europe feeling inspired. Or enthusiastic. Or validated. Or whipped.
Informed – absolutely, but never… improved.
We’ve been here two days and the conference has yet […]

24-hour lecture circuit
Adam and I are on the plane back from Stockholm – cutting through a massive snowstorm after a long day off the island. We’ve been speaking at Fryshuset Gymnasium and GUC Uppsala.
Three months ago when Fryshuset invited us to talk about ethical games we were brimming with ideas! We would talk about abuse in gaming spaces, exclusion in the industry and culture, bullshit copy protection schemes, bullying, harassment – all of the things!
We spent many late […]

Artist's block
Efter helgens intensiva Game Jam här på ön har hjärnan tagit semsester. Jag har halfhjärtat försökt sova ikapp lite men förgäves. Det finns så himla mycket annat kul jag vill göra och ingenting kommer ut ur huvudet. :/

BETA presentation och post mortem
Denna vecka blir det verkligen kaka på kaka! Inte nog med alla grafikmöten med lärare och grupp, jag har fått kasta ihop en snabb PowerPoint presentation, påbörjat med ca 4 nya screen backgrounds till spelets olika menymoment och ska ha föreläsning. …
