The Stream Scheme

At the time of writing this post I am now a third year student, things have gotten a little bit more serious and we have been tasked with developing a product for a specific target audience with a final goal of releasing the product. The idea is that after this course we’ll have learned how to market ourselves as well as our product and of course, the importance of finding an audience that is actually into whatever it is you’re […]

What Knytt Stories taught me.

Finally, back to the blog after a scandalous amount of procrastinating…

Our first assignment of the year was to build a level in a game called Knytt Stories. It’s a platformer game with a minimum amount of mechanics that is easy to grasp and play. This game also has a very simple though limited level editor that the students were required to use for the construction of the level. The assignment itself stated that we had to convey a dramatic narrative […]

A look back at the creatures of Trust!

I am refreshing my blog with some of the creatures from the game Trust that didn’t make it to the blog in time. I will just show the different creatures! The blog is a great way for me to remember the things I’ve done and I realised that there were many of them absent!
 

Sleeping rock troll!

Waking rock troll!

Water troll!
 

The arms, coming out of the water to try and grab the kids!

 

Tree Troll!

Tree troll arms! Suddenly these could come out […]

The Heartbeakers

Hello everybirdy!
I was recently invited to join the development of a friend’s game, which is super exciting! Before I joined the team was only two people, an artist/designer and a programmer. They asked me to do the writing for the game and of course I jumped at the opportunity!
As much as I love 2D and 3D work, narrative writing has a special place in my heart.

So, it’s a strategy game called The Heartbeakers, in which you play as a small […]

Om att bli kallad söt och känna sig förminskad

Under gårdagen var jag med i Invest in Games 2017 som utställare. Jag representerade Sam and Nicole och var där för att mingla och skapade nya kontakter. På plats fanns Sveriges radio och de ville fråga mig lite om hur det är att vara kvinna i spelindustrin nu när Dataspelsbranchen har släppt nya siffror där det framkommer att bara 2 av 10 i industrin identifierar sig som kvinna. Som en ung tjej i industrin och hoppas på en förändring så […]

ZBrush Mouth Modeling!

Woho! Zbrush has started!
Ok so, we are one week into the zbrush course and I think it’s time I share my work progress. Our first assignment is to model mouths, ears, noses and eye’s, 3-sets of each.
 
Mouth 1
Starting of in zbrush I was very confused to how to do my work. Luckily some tutorials helped me get started. I started by choosing 3 images of people with different types of mouths to use as reference images when modeling.
This was my […]

Interacting with tools and changing stats

 Messaging
In order to dictate when the intractable objects should activate its animations and other functions, i used the built in messaging system in unity. This is used to send a command to use a certain function within another script. This is an easy way to control a small amount of functions on a global scale.
Shower
The shower is composed by a collision box, a particle effect and a static 3D model. The whole system starts when the player touches the screen […]

Eating

Eating
We now have a way to throw food to the critter by the use of the touchscreen. In this game you are supposed to care for your critter and raise it as you wish it to become in its adult stage. To do this you are suppose to treat it well (or not so well) in order to get the wished result. Here i was assigned to create a system that firstly keeps track of the amount of different food […]

Movement

With the use of the previous posts function, the touching of the screen. I continued to create some form of movement for the critter. When you touch the screen so that the created ray collides with the floor of the map, i save the point of collision as a coordinate. This coordinate is then sent to the critter to be evaluated. The critter receives a value for an X, Y and Z coordinate, with these the critter knows where the […]

Life drawing – final assignments

Hello all! This summer has gone by so unbelievably fast, I get a bit stressed out when I think about it. But it’s definitely been fun!
Our final assignment in life drawing class was twofold; the first part was to make a sculpture, which we did in class with a model as a reference. The second part was to redraw a classical painting, but change it slightly.
Here’s my sculpture:

I’m actually quite pleased with how it turned out. […]

Life drawing

Hello gang!
This summer I’m attending the life drawing class here at campus Gotland. It’s been fun so far but a bit intense at times. I’ve been drawing people for a long time and I think I’m pretty decent at it, but practice is always good!
I found my old drawings from three years ago when I read the first 2D class and I’ve improved a lot more than I thought since then!
Here are some drawings from this summer:

Enterprise-D

This is a modular environment representing an engine room hallway of the Star Trek starship Enterprise-D. It was created in fall 2015 during a 3D environment course taken at Uppsala University for my bachelors degree.
The environment was constructed by modelling 16 parts in 3ds Max. The tileable PBR textures are created in Substance Painter 2. The objects in the scene have several LODs and the lightmaps are manually adjusted to increase the quality of shadows while keeping resolution low. The […]
