It’s time to introduce you all to the second game projects of the class of 2013! The students were divided into groups and given the task of creating a vehicle based game in 4 weeks.
The games were presented to a jury of game industry proffesionals in February, after which the jury played the games and discussed them with the students.
The jury consisted of:
Cryptic is a game of combat, exploration and puzzle solving. It is a top view game that plays as a
classical shooter with a twist; you can be both in the virtual and the real world. It is a shooter in the real world while being puzzle oriented in the virtual world. You move between the worlds by
possessing robots and use them to fight and to solve puzzles.
Cryptic was created by:
Game design: Oscar Göthberg and Erik Johansson
3D graphics: Oskar Bernelind, Ivan Nestorov, Peter Jemstedt and Buddha Babulanam
Hovercraft is a vehicle based multiplayer shooter for up to six players. In Hovercraft you play in either the red or the blue team. Each team starts by building a base that consist of towers and walls. After that both team fights and tries to take the bomb that is located in the middle of the level, when any team gets the bomb they will then try to plant it in the enemy base.
There are three vehicles to choose from: The FlamethrowerHover is great at short range and has lots of health. The Missilehover is best at long range but has the lowest health. The Emp can shut down enemy vehicles and is great in teamfights.
Create carnage and destroy the enemies base!!! MOHAHAHA

Game design: Pär Kamfjord and Tomas Ulfström
3D graphics: Dan Mihaila, Isabell Sarstedt, Simon Lindberg Amanou and Hannes Delbeke
In a world much like our own a rare mineral that can negate gravity has been discovered. The corporation, Volto, uses robots for the difficult and dangerous task of mining the minerals. The robots succumb to all kinds of dangers and are discarded whenever a newer model arrives. But one day a small robot becomes aware of what is going on and wants to free his friends from their slavery.
Robot Rescue is a puzzle/platform game, where you have to save as many of your robot friends as possible from the mines. You take control of a little robot that can give instructions and upgrades to his bigger friends in order to avoid hazards and pits as you try to escape the mines and factories. Making use of platforming and limited resources, Robot Rescue features puzzles that require skill, timing and logical thinking to get through.
Robot Rescue was created by:
Game design: Isak Åberg Nordmark and Jakob Have
3D graphics: Felix Fritzell, Adrian Drott and Kaj Westerlund
Beat It is a 2.5D side-scrolling shooter in which you control a spaceship. This sounds pretty ordinary and our game is played like most side-scrolling shooters; you shoot enemies, you avoid obstacles and you even have to solve the occasional puzzle. But what makes this game unique and different from all the other shooters is that you do all of the above to the BEAT of the music. The music you play to will make the game come alive and almost everything you see will move to the beat of the music.
That’s not all… in Beat It, we let you customize your experience by letting YOU choose the music you want to play to by picking a song from your personal music library on your computer. The intensity of the song you choose doesn’t only influence the feedback you get in the level, but it also influences your opportunity to score BIG! The higher the intensity of the song, the higher the multiplier will be and the more points you can accumulate.
Beat It was created by:
Game design: Simon Palm and Joep de Valcke
3D graphics: Mikaela Älgekrans, Dragos Burlacu and Samuel Schultz
