Jabii is DK developed and produced physical/digital game I haven't mentioned yet. Basically it's a digitized very soft boxing game. They shipped their first batch to backers and others this Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWfYmf7qTiw Hmm.. a bit sceptical here. Kind of looks like an expen...

The 2 lovely ladies strong Other Tales has done really well with their first game Tick Tock: A Tale for Two. Now part of the top paid charts on the AppStore for 2020. Big grats! Personal experience with game was not super smooth sailing. Played it with my girlfriend (now future wife to be) around th...

Times has indeed changed. Nu hvor hjælpen kun er en stack overflow søgning eller youtube tutorial væk i mange tilfælde. Spiludvikling.dk udspringer jo helt klart af det gamle 3d grafiker miljø på nettet hvor der ikke var noget specifikt for spil på det tidspunkt. Eller kun et halvskjult igda sub-for...

:) Takker Søren! Ha en fortsat super bagjul! Sjældent jeg hører nogen sætter pris på mit lille ikke-kommercielle forum initiativ uden reklamer eller andet gøgl. Ærligt talt er det er lidt som at slå i en dyne engang imellem. ;) Men syntes faktisk det er meget hyggeligt! Specielt når folk skriver lid...

God bagjul der ude! 🎄🎁🎅🏼 And for no apparent reason (or only that it's cool) I'm just dropping a badass Mandalorian synthwave cover by some guys called YSSY. And waiting for Season 3 of The Mandalorian. Guess it's going to be a while. Till 2022. But the amount of Star Wars content incoming is just m...

Vision Denmark has a fun little quiz game on the Danish games industry in 2020. Still available for a day and 12 hours at time of writing. Ahmm.. my first run was møffi and it wasn't completely focused. Before deciding to get my proper name on the scoreboard for a second run. But at least I am an ho...

Great talk for indie devs

In a push for transparency the Swedish publisher Raw Fury has released their publishing agreement. Nice move. Let's hope more follow suit though my hopes are not too high.

Indigo Gaming has a really nice documentary on cyberpunk in gaming and media. Something to enjoy over the weekend. Part 3 is under way. Basically they are summing up a sizeable chunk of my game and media consumption in my younger years. It's also interesting seeing all the cool games and movies pres...

So the kiddo (10 years old) has introduced me to some VR craziness. Ree kid and Emi. It's full on foul-mouthed screaming. Highly immature and not for the overly sensitive types.

VR has truly become a thing of it's own.

The demo has been out of a little while. :) I have a few former colleges from my Sweden years working on it. Btw. Never got around to give the mobile game (Very Little Nightmares) a spin. Looked nice though! ...

And a new education (or shorter course it seems) for game producers has emerged in Denmark. Not really sure that DK game development ecosystem job market can truly support that role in great numbers. But it's always a great addition. It will mostly likely be people who has entrepreneurial startup bl...

I totally missed this DK release back in april 2018 from Alimote ApS. Sadly it doesn't look like it went running really. The game seems have a fairly strong inspiration in Subway Surfers. But with the some additions like wall running and jump pads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gwon1UOhAdY GoogleP...
