Varen met de Kogge ... March 2018 ... as Intern @ Blewscreen

While on my internship at BlewScreen from February to the start of July I worked on many project in the studio.
'Varen met de Kogge', or 'Sailing the Cog' was one of them.
My part was the creation of several assets, rigging and animating the base character, the decorating of the level, the level design and its many testing sessions.

Take a look at BlewScreen's website: www.blewscreen.com

Dutch introduction taken from blewscreen.com
Varen met de kogge is een spannende serious game waar spelers van alle leeftijden varen met een middeleeuwse kogge vanaf de Zuiderzee over de IJssel. Het doel is om binnen de beschikbare tijd de vracht van de kogge af te leveren in Kampen. Dit kan de enkele speler alleen doen of leuker nog: samen met iemand anders. Ieder heeft dan zijn eigen taak in de game.
​Natuurlijk moet er gestuurd worden om obstakels te ontwijken en vracht op te pakken. Maar met hulp van een tweede speler kan makkelijker: de kogge versneld of vertraagd worden, vragen in de game beantwoord worden en de speciale acties op de kogge uitgevoerd worden. De snelheid van de kogge bepalen kan de spelers een betere tijd opleveren en dus meer punten. Hetzelfde geldt voor het goed beantwoorden van de historische vragen en voor de speciale taken op het schip zoals: tuigage herstellen, het roer vrijmaken en aanleggen in Kampen.

​Spelers leren op een snelle en leuke manier de geschiedenis digitaal kennen door de game te spelen.
Varen met de kogge is te ervaren in het Nederlands, Engels en Duits in Batavialand, samen met andere installaties rondom de Hanze handelsroutes.

Industrial Pieck ... October 2017

Several assets which can be used in an isometric game set in an Anton Pieck inspired industrial world.
