De Blob DS version

[Gray Fox]

It's being made by people from my college, and a guy who works on it even thought me 3dsmax. In any case I promised him I would at least illegally download it for an emulator, and so should you because it looks like it will kick ass.

Isn't it a Wii game?

Looks pretty good.

 

[Gray Fox]

Maybe, he said it was for the DS.

edit: it's also for the Wii. So remember to download it, or even buy it if your filthy rich.

I played a demo of this (pc) on the open day of the HKU in Hilversum. It was pretty cool.

Seems kinda sameish after some time, though :|

Haha. It looks like he's pissing everywhere.

Are you sure it was the demo, because de blob was originally a free indy pc game, maybe you played that.

 

[The Brick]

I meant that as in that it was set up there to be played, with a large projector so everyone in the room could watch. A demonstration.

 

[Gray Fox]

Ok, but why were you there? Are you thinking of studying Game design and Development?

 

[The Brick]

Absolutely. Unless something weird happens, I'll be starting in 2008.

Better get started then Brick. Start building up a portfolio of work. I don't know what you want to do but good luck.

 

[Gray Fox]

Absolutely. Unless something weird happens, I'll be starting in 2008.

are you going to do the base course which starts in november, it's 350,- but it's great. They tell you some useful info about the study, about the industry, your homework consist of making 3dmodels, or games. You meet nerds like you.

I could also send you my portfolio which got me in, so you can see what level you need to be. I did **** up with the game however, I think I had the worst game there,(although also one of the few that were within the rules) but my 3dskill made up for it.

edit: my skill is not great, but considering I started in late November it was very good. Also I have about 15 game design books on my PC I could link you to a torrent or even upload some of them.

 

[The Brick]

I signed up for it, but it was already full. It's the reason why I'm starting in 2008, not this year. So you're saying you took that course? no wai :O

 

[Gray Fox]

Yup and I'm staring this September, on the 26 august I have to go on camp with my fellow victims. In any case like I said if you need help, some explaining or even just an idea how thing work let me know, what they expect.

edit; wait, you just going to do the basiscursus in 2008, your not going to start the full study?

 

[The Brick]

I signed up for the basiscursus this year, but it was full and I'm still in the waiting list. I don't expect to still get in. I hope to get in the full study in 2008. And yes, I do like to hear experiences and see work etc. I'm actually more interested in the technical side of game design. But designing concepts should be ok. From what I got from the open day, I think I'm more interested in the 3rd and 4th year.

 

[Gray Fox]

Ok, well at least download Zbrush and SketchUp. They are easy and very powerful, when you get frustrated with max and hammer, you just spend 15 min in zbrush or sketchup to feel good again, and then you continue to slave away behind 3dsmax and hammer.

 

[The Brick]

Get on steam chat so we can talk.

 

[-Psy-]

I could link you to a torrent or even upload some of them.

cough yes please cough

 

[Gray Fox]

Done psycho, for anyone else, if you want the books pm me.

 

[L3adCannon]

Looks like Gish, but 3d. Gonna get it for sure.
