Staffs Uni Bootcamp 2011





A couple of screenshots from a recent project I was involved in. For the last 2 years Staffordshire University has run a side project after term has finished called ‘Bootcamp’. Basically it’s an intense week of making a game from the ground up. This year we made a Side Scrolling Dino Shooter ‘Dino Dave’. Overall its a little bit silly but then projects like this are always great fun. After a complete week of 9-5 the project is at an ‘almost’ complete state, a few tweaks and it will be ready to put up and hopefully I will link it to my portfolio. So my contribution to this? Well last year I was put in charge of the environment props section and I asked to do the same again this year, but due to a number of level designers not being able to make it I was put in charge of that instead. Working with the Unreal Engine (UDK) is pretty interesting at times. It has turned out pretty well for just a single week’s work and we are rather proud. Will post more about this when it becomes available.
