This year I attended the bradford animation fest for the second time.
It was an opportunity to see what new games and concepts had been developed this year for new releises.
In this years BAF we witnessed games such as brink, a game split between two factions fighting over resorces. We got to see how the development of character progressed through a series of custimistations and concept designs which was usefull to see how they acheived all the different textures for the character customisation.
others we veiwed where games such as Dr Who interactive, about how the bbc created an interactive game to download off the web and play that was realiated to the series of Dr who. They also showed various concepts here of creatures that the player may encounter through out the game.
There was a talk about indie games and how small games designers can build up games such as old arcade games and jazz them up a little along with complex puzzle games. one of the most popular of these games was a game called minecraft which was a world made up of mineable land.
other interesting game concepts shown to us where from a game called enslaved that had detailed pieces of concepts.
Smaller games produced for iphone where also shown.
