Things are coming to an end.

Well not really, but at least for my pending course, Game Analysis & Game Design. The final assignment we were handed is a five week Concept project. We were divided into groups by six and were handed two random words that we were supposed to follow when we designed our game. Right now we are two weeks in, and we still have three weeks to go. This is such a big project that I felt that an update about halfway in was necessary. The elements of this assignment are;
The two words we got were: Thaumaturgy & Summer. Our teacher were very specific when he told us that the interpretation of the words are all up to the team to decide. We decided the following: So right now we are only five people in our group, since the sixth decided to leave school, personal reasons. We are making it work though. I received the role ”Lead Art” which felt good since I am here to study design and art. Our first idea kind of crashed since we realized we couldn’t make a paper prototype of it. We started early so we had the time on our side. We simply changed our idea, but with the same Core Experience. I will explain the game more once we are done, but what I can tell you is that the game is about writing. You attack and damage creatures by writing words under time pressure. We recently finished our paper prototype, which I will post some pictures of later on this week. After that we are going to focus on the Concept and Pitch document. So after this assignment is done, I am starting a course I’ve really been looking forward to. It is 2D-Computer Graphics with Pernilla Persson. I simply can’t wait. Until next time, Take care! Yours sincerely, Adam  |
