Finally the fruits of my labour recently, namely this site, are ready to be shared. I have made the theme i made for this place freely available to you all, if you wish to adopt the same look. Read on for some techno babble about building web sites! (more…)
Today started super with toast and tomatoes, quickly followed by live drawing at school, with coffee on the side. Nice. But then i checked my internets, and it turned out Ian Stewart, the creator of the Thematic framework, mentioned me on Twitter. A-W-E-S-O-M-E! Having such an internet authority mention me feels like i could put a badge on my site, saying “Internet approved”. And it isn’t even lunch yet. I plan on being crowned king of Jupiter around dinnertime.
Oh, and the game is coming around, it’s gonna be awesome too. Think I’ll post some of the products of this weeks drawing classes later. Jacob out
While poking around finding strange software and being inspired by things such as The Mighty Boosh, i figured i wanted to make a game. Let me rephrase that; an audio-visual experience-thing.
Acctually, lets just call it a game for now.
Long story short, i wanted to see how i can package some awesome visual things, cool sounds, awesome music and of course myself as the protagonist, into a game setting.
This thing I’m creating is a really old school experience, the gaming experience will be much like old game titles such as Police Quest and Raiders of the lost ark.I’m using AGS to build the game, Photoshop and lots more for visuals and god knows what and everyhing else for sound. Just got my new 6 000,- sound interface the other day, let’s try and squeeze something outta that one.
I’ll come back when i have something more to show, for now some animation shots of me walking sideways with no pants. A-W-E-S-O-M-E-.
Hooray! The brand new version of my site is now up and running!
I spent a lot of the summer building this thing. It might not like look a spaceship on top, but trust me, under the hood this thing is an intergalactic juggernaut. The whole header section is designed as a blank canvas, that funky elephant (made for an event in 2008) is just the starting point. More after the jump! (more…)
Sorry about leaving you hangin for some time now without any posts, I am currently developing a whole new look and feel for this place, which will hopefully roll out soon. be sure to check back in a little while, and everything will be much prettier.
If you have a hardy stomach, you can see how it’s coming along as i build it over at jacoblysgaard.com/wptest. But please, don’t take it seriously just yet. Most of the graphics are placeholders anyways.
Håvard from UPOP.no interviewed me on some various stuff and asked me to share some vids with the world. You can see it on upop.no.
