Counterbalance - 2009 - Game

Assembly game development competition entry. The game ended up winning the game development competition.

The game started out as a test project of controls where player could destroy and add geometry to a game world. I showed the test project to a friend of mine few weeks before Assembly deadlinea and he came up with the idea to rotate the playfield. Then after some time of fooling around with the concept we ended up adding the balls to the rotating playfield to the game and turning the small test app to a game.

Bumpcraft - 2007 - Game

A Ludum Dare 48h entry. Theme was "Build the levels you play". I really wanted to make the building of the levels fun and get rid off the "pick a piece - lay a piece" kind of level building, which seemed boring in my testing.

This time i chose to draw everything with just lines and rectangles with some cheap alpha tricks. I'm quite happy with the game - gameplay gets a bit dull in long run and it could have used some more variation..

In 2011 I ported this game to Samsung Bada and Symbian^3 mobile platforms just for learning purposes. Porting games for these platforms was surprisingly smooth. The tools were lot better than I expected, especially for Symbian^3. The game is freely available for both of these platforms.

Tengomenas - 2007 - Demo

Anaglyphic 3d demo for Simulaatio demoparty. The party has unique feature that every visitor is given anaglyphic 3d glasses which are used to watch the anaglyphic demos.

I prepared my demo purely for the glasses. Most of the effects are just very simple geometry which is coming fast towards the viewer. Simple line geometry seemed to look best with the anaglyphic glasses.

Get yourself pair of anaglyphic glasses before watching.
