Board Game System Meeting

Yesterday, we had our first group meeting discussing our board game system that we are going to make.
We decided on our aesthetic goal for it. We wanted the player to experience different emotions of excitement, intense competition and an element of strategy.
I get excited about the challenge in meeting those requirements in the game and I hope that we will be able to make it happen.
When we had discussed the aesthetic goal that we wanted to achieve then we moved […]

Game Jam: Doom’s Date

A couple of days ago we had a game jam at our university. In a game jam usually you get words and you have to create a game containing those words. The words that were given to us was “Everyday” and “Doom”. We had 7 hours to complete this game using game maker, we decided pretty quickly about something that we thought was doable during that short period. We decided to make a dating game where the player had to […]

A Reflection of System Analysis

Let me tell you a story.
Once upon a time there were 2 board games and 1 role-playing game that wanted to be analysed. They wanted to be broken down into their tiniest pieces and then they wanted to know what their systems were. The biggest box Setty was confident in his systems and he feared no one.
– I have a wonderful system that brings shame on others!
Ani said in response:
– I have more cards than you’ll […]

A Serious Problem for Serious Games

It’s been a while since I wrote in this blog but it has been a couple of busy weeks. So I’ll give you an update on what I have done and what’s coming.
The problem for serious games that I decided to do was Global Warming. It was a big problem but I felt that the focus on global warming has decreased in late years. That is because I remember it when it was all over the news and everywhere and […]

Problem

Today we got yet another assignment which was to find a subject that might fit into a serious game. Then we should research it and find out its key issues/problems and then we should think how it could be implemented in a video game, and what the game could try and achieve. This is supposed to be written down in around 2-5 pages until friday, so I better find a subject… PRONTO.
My teacher sent me this as an example: http://www.darfurisdying.com/

Mechanics Design Final Product


This is my final resource design for my course Serious Games. Unfortunately, I could not find a way to post the xml file that will make the picture interactive meaning that you can’t run it 🙁
Anyway, the basic idea is that you start with 500 money that you can invest in 2 different options. Energy and property but you can’t invest in property unless you have water and electricity. So you start with investing in energy with which you […]
