New Project

So, me and 5 friends have recently started a new project.

We are going to make a game for our course called Big Game Project.
The idea that we are working on is a realistic bear simulator called ‘Become the Bear’. We want to make something very realistic that really captures the feeling of being one of the most awesome, majestic and powerful creatures on earth.

We are currently working on a vertical slice/sandbox mode that we are going to show at GGC (http://www.eventsforgamers.com/calendar/gotland-game-conference-2014/)

We have currently finished our second week (out of 8) of production and are building our first playable on monday, the idea was to have it friday already but the abomination of a holiday called easter got in our way so it got pushed until everyone is in the same room again.

I have taken the role as producer and lead design so these last weeks has mainly consisted of planning, problem solving, getting people set up and started at work and nail biting over how much work we have ahead of us but currently we are more or less at the point I want.
This last week there has also been a lot of working with getting animations to work in our engine (unity). But hopefully once we have solved it one time we have worked out a workflow for the future as well.

In the future i will update this blog (at least) once a week with how the production is coming along.
