Being a student...

... the summer months are a bit slow for me on things to update about. This being that now that it's summer vacation I'm not actually in production of anything. Oh on a note the EMC didn't pan out this summer so I've been working on my own things.

Specifically I've been in the preproduction of my Senior Team Project game. That I will be working on with Husam Al-Ziab, Asa Gillette, and Taylor Bjorndahl. We may be cut during the school year and put to work on other projects or we gain more members as other teams are cut.

We have four game ideas at the moment which is more than some other groups, who have zero, and what we're working on for the rest of the summer is concept art and some very simple level design work so that I can get used to the engine editor and we can get a feel for how the game might play.

Our plan is to pick the two ideas we like the best and really try to run with those two and then present all of them to our professors at the start of the semester and see which one they think we should continue with. I'd share with you some of the ideas but I keep everything pretty close to the chest when it comes to game ideas and putting them on the internet. Because the last thing I want it is to make a game for a class and then see something incredibly similar coming out for the 360 arcade a year later.

That's all for now. Maybe I'll have more to share this summer, probably not. I'll ask my group mates if they have websites and if I can post them on here for you to look at them if you want... and they want.
