Game making - Eskimotion


Right, so for the last month I've bin working on my very first computer game as an animator,
although it was not a game meant for the market.

the game is called Eskimotion and you play a little Inuit who is trying to save his little-sister from the evil Yeti King.




in order to save you're sis you'll have to run, slide and jump through an icy tunnel that is the Yeti Kings lair, avoid giant blocks and spikes of ice and collect peaces of you're sister's broken neck less,
chasing you is a giant snowball, so make sure not to hit the blocks/spikes or the snowball will gain on you and roll you over.

the experience was very nice and I was on a really nice team,
the time we had for making this game (intended for 8 year olds) was one month

we used 3D Studio Max for all the animations and I was working together with a friend from KAU and the engine used was Source withs is also used for Half Life 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2
