The Jelly Reef is an entertainment game developed for the Microsoft Surface Table, comissioned by the Dutch Game Garden.
Our team (by the name of Pigeonhead Studios) was comissioned by the Dutch Game Garden (DGG) to create a game on the Microsoft Surface Table which would sit in their lobby and introduce the various companies within the DGG through the game.In The Jelly Reef you have to guide jellyfish safely through a level by swiping the surface of the table, this will create a current on which the jellyfish will float. You can also place a unique DGG tag (a small statue of the DGG logo) on the table to regroup the jellyfish and show information about the different companies within the DGG building.
For this project I worked on various 2D-assets. Such as line-art for levels, characters and props. I also made all the animations for the game.
For videos, more info about the team and the game, check out the official The Jelly Reef website.
Dr. O'Too - City of Chemistry was a game developed for the Facebook platform, commissioned by the University Utrecht.
Our team (by the name of Gents in Games) was commissioned by the UU to create a game to raise more awareness for the science-classes in highschool. We went for a
Facebook-game due to the target audience. The idea of the game was that you can play a puzzle-game which revolves around creating certain elements through chemistry.
With each succesfully finished puzzle you gain money to upgrade your laboratory. Eventually this appeared too much for us to handle, so we narrowed it down to the
puzzle-game with a laboratory as menu.
During this project I established the visual style and worked on various 2D-assets, such as the puzzle-elements, laboratory devices and interface components.
You can play the game here. Facebook account required.
During my internship at Ronimo Games I worked on their yet to be announced new title.
In my third year I did a 6 month internship at Ronimo Games (creators of Swords & Soldiers). During this time I worked on various small projects, but the main project was their yet to be announced new game. Sadly I cannot elaborate too much on the work I did for that title until they make the official announcement. So keep a good eye on their website and Twitter, and I shall update this as soon as I am allowed!
During this project I worked on various development stages of the game. I've done concept-art for characters and environments, final game-art and animations.
