We remade the game visually, changed the gameplay mechanics, all the while keeping what was fun about the game. We also had to rethink our game: it initially had a steep learning curve and was for a select crowd who seeks an intensely challenging game experience. At this point, we learned that rewriting a game crushes morale. We switched to a 3D engine and rewrote the entire game from scratch. What kind of obstacles did you encounter in developing your first game?Īfter 2 months, we realized that we made too many mistakes and needed to change it around.

I contacted a few students that were in other programs of study and we got together to create our entry. Our attitude going in was: “We’ll win that easily and we’ll also make the best game.” While this was going on, I felt that a lot of the courses I was taking in school were slow-paced and not practical – I just wanted to get right down to making games. In 2008, we decided to take part in a game development competition called the Swedish Game Awards at the Royal Institute of Technology. Tell us about how the studio got started. Johan Pilestedt, CEO and Game Director, and Anton Stenmark, CTO and programmer, from Arrowhead Game Studios discuss the challenges of starting up a studio and the importance of getting a game engine that works for you. “If it seems impossible, we’ll do it anyways.” That’s the motto at Arrowhead Game Studios in Stockholm, makers of Helldivers, Gauntlet and Magicka.

The next comparison that businesses have to take into consideration is how much value they’re getting for their money. Value/Benefits Comparison: Office 2019 vs Microsoft 365 So, if you have users that need to use the software on more than one computer (home and work), you’re looking at double the cost for the perpetual license software.
