10 weeks of Project Runway brutal production starts today.
We’ve got 15 first year teams, 12 in the second year. The third year is mostly doing thesis work, so we’re expecting 2 games and a massive art gallery. The fourth year is still shrouded in myth and mystery.
The countdown has started; it’s time to earn that spot in front of the jury and on the showfloor.

Houston; we have t-shirt
Well. We’ve always had t-shirts, but this design is new. Code-literate people would read these as “Gotland University – Game Design AND Programming OR Graphics” – mirroring the structure of our educations (game design major, art or code minor).
… programmers will then likely realize how silly it is to do Boolean comparison when clearly we’re aiming for something like a bitwise assignment. 🙂
The shirts are for sale in the university reception (plastic only people!). GAME students can sign up here to allow us to restock.
