Lycanthrope: Post Mortem
|
Hello! My name is Mattias Borgqvist and I am currently working on a shoot ‘em up game based on the concept document “A game of beelonging” by group Ouroboros. Here we are at the end of the course with our Shoot ‘em up game developed and finished. It has been a journey that I am glad that I could be a part of, before this project I could never in my life imagine that I would be able to do what has been done during our developing process. I have learnt so much like how to animate, design characters and make audio for our game. At first, I was unsure how I would be able to be part of a team developing a game with people I did not know too well, but it turned out to be an experience by itself just to work as a group without the game in mind. In the beginning of the project we had a hard time to be effective during meetings and the meetings were often dominated by a few people talking, including myself. I was with people that I had not worked with that much before and I was unsure of my own knowledge and afraid of saying something that could be “wrong” or “stupid”. In time I come to know my fellow team mates better and we all started to get more used to hanging out and could talk more freely and this is when I felt more comfortable with saying whatever even if it was stupid or not, the group accepted my opinion and gave me feedback if they thought my ideas were lacking. When it comes to the development process itself, I have also learned a lot and done things that I never done before and build up experience and can now animate much faster than I done before, and I have also found out better ways to work in photoshop and my knowledge in the program is much greater than before, I am glad that the program has these project for us student to make us work like we would have done in a real company or at least striving for that in mind. Overall, I am happy with the result and I can’t wait to see what the arcade course has to offer for us all, see you then bye for now!  |
