While the programmers are working on getting the AI to work properly, us artists are dealing with animations, […]

Mole Munch – Dev log 1
Vi är en grupp på 6 personer som tillsammans utvecklar ”Mole munch”. ”Mole munch” är ett projekt i kursen Spelutveckling i samband med Spelprogrammering 2. Jag går i rolen av ”Lead Code” och lägger därför mycket av mitt fokus på att programmera. Vad jag har valt att fokusera på denna veckan är vad som kallas en entitetslista. Detta är en lista skapad för att samla alla objekt i spelet. Varför man vill samla alla objekt i en lista är för att det underlättar […]

Ambient Pressure Screens Background
I spent a 40 minutes an evening looking up ways to create an underwater picture, before settling on a simple method only utilizing six PhotoShop tools.
A blue and black gradient is the biggest part of the background.
I then used white and black to render clouds – after that, I used the filter gallery to turn a plastic wrap filter (settings being Highlight Stregth 12, Detail 9, Smoothness 7) on, followed by adding linear dodge to make it blend in with the background. Free Transform […]
