It’s status update time!
We’ve just on-boarded three new interns and today’s status update will focus on them and their introductions. They all come from The Game Assembly, the same school as Tomas, Hampus and Danny went to.
Hi, everyone!
My name is Oskar and I’ve just now started my internship at Expansive Worlds, where I will be doing graphical content for theHunter.
I’m originally from Varberg, a small town on the west coast of Sweden, and I’ve lived there for the most part of my life. I like spending time with my girlfriend, family and friends, travelling and practicing my art. I also like watching movies and television shows, which I use as a source of inspiration.
My first brush with video games was Super Mario Bros on the NES in the late ’80s. Ever since, I’ve been hooked. When I was a kid I dreamt of one day being able to work with games but as I grew older I somehow got the idea that wouldn’t be possible while living in Sweden.
So I got into web development but after a couple of years it didn’t feel right. I thought to myself “if I’m gonna spend a third of my life or more working, it should be with something that I really enjoy!” and so, I was drawn back to video games.
In the short time that I’ve been here, I’ve noticed how dedicated many of you are about hunting and theHunter, and also how dedicated the team is to bringing you this experience.
I’m really excited about the opportunity to be a part of that and I promise you all I will do my best!
Hello there!
I am one of the new interns here at Expansive Worlds and I’ve joined the Client Programming team. My name is Robin Andersson and I am 22 years of age and have recently moved to the beautiful capital, Stockholm (totally worth visiting, by the way).
I am originally hailing from Gothenburg but I have also studied and lived in Malmö for two years.
Apart from the obvious, being a game enthusiast, I also love sailing and sports in general. I have trained judo since I was 9 years old until I injured myself badly in a competition at the age of 17. I have participated in the Swedish National Cup but since the injury training has been very off and on. My brother (big fan of theHunter) has also been an important part of my life: So this is a little shout out, I guess. Best guy ever!
For the last two years I have deeply immersed myself in trying to become a good programmer, which now has given me the favorable opportunity to be part of this great team. I will try my best for them, myself and for you out there!
Hi there. My name is Daniel Jansson and I have just started my internship as a Level Designer here at Expansive Worlds. I have always enjoyed the creative process and have worked on pen and paper RPG’s as well as done a fair deal of writing. But a few years back I set my sights on computer game development and managed to get accepted into The Game Assembly in Malmö as a Level Design student.
Two years of intense studies later, I am now sitting in Stockholm working on The Hunter and having a great time. Apart from games I enjoy reading and have a weak spot for really, really bad B and C movies. Also I am a beer nerd, in particular when it comes to the various traditional Belgian style beers. Especially sour beer. Yeah, sour beer is good for you.
So please give the guys a warm welcome!
We’re aiming to release the next gen of the “mirror cam” some time next week and we’re also working on something that might please our guest players.
