Student projects are added irregularly and in no particular order. These are projects stretching back to 2002, from students in their 1st, 2nd and 3rd year and using vastly different tech. Thus; we recommend you use the tag cloud to the right to filter the projects you’re interested in!

BlockDropper

BlockDropper is a game controlled by dropping colored cubes down a hole. We have an avatar that’s being chased by a big wall of fire. The goal of the game is to make the avatar survive for as long as possible by dropping blocks to help your avatar get past different obstacles.

Project Toyworld

Take on the role of a young boy as he journeys through the creative worlds he forms in his mind: don the knight armor and defeat the evil king, put on the hat (you know which one I’m talking about) and explore ancient ruins in search of lost treasures, fly through space with a jetpack and battle mutant aliens.

When a child’s imagination is the limit, there’s no telling where he’ll go next.

Animation Cinema!

Animation cinema at the Gotland Game Conference 2011
Film requires big screen and big sound to be experienced properly. That’s why the animators of Gotland University hosts a fully pimped-out movie theater at the Gotland Game Conference.

The Animation Cinema is where you go to enjoy all the animations in one comfortable sitting; complete with air conditioner and free, fresh popcorns. 🙂

The show starts every half hour and is entirely free of charge!

Army of One: W-URM#1


Army of One: W-URM#1 is a futuristic PC game, a 3rd person shooter which focuses on parkour in a combat vehicle. With a unique combination of fast paced action and body physics, the player takes control of W-URM#1, an experimental combat vehicle, to target and destroy enemy turrets.
By using the landscape to their advantage, the player can make their vehicle jump over valleys and shoot through tunnels, making every shot an action movie.

Tools: The game is built in Unity3D game engine, using tools such as Maya, 3DS Max, Blender, Visual Studio and Photoshop, to produce game content. All audio is produced professionally in Resolution Recording Studio in North Wales.
