One year GRINning

So it's about bleedin' time I update my journal, heh dunnow but work has kept me occupied with just about everything but doing any new art.

So.. it's gone a year since I came to Stockholm and started working at GRIN, video game developer, as an assistance to a producer.
And how did that go? Oh damn it was horrible, spent four months in a room for spare computer parts... due to the lack of tasks.
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 was about to go goldmaster so my tasks more or less became basic QA-testing.

But everything has luckily turned around and I managed to make enough of an impression to remain at the company with steady employment... YES!

I got an apartment just outside the heart of Stockholm, 10 minutes away from work by the subway and a sallary that at least offers an impression to a normal lively income. :D

So what game am I working on? Bionic Commando of course.. I am sure you've heard of it.. I hope you do..you haven't ? GRR! :P

What am I doing? I work in the design team managing documentation and meetings, and of course contributing with game design.
Currently sitting in meetings with flown in delegates from CAPCOM to argue over the last things for the game before everything is nailed down shut for Master delivery.

So I have to say that despite my fears of failure it feels like I've actually found my place in the industry I've dreamt to work in.

It feels GEEEWD

Alright so here is the scoop;
I'm a project manager studying at Gamemaker, learning management, game design and so on. Anything involving the production of a video game.

NOW, I entered a contest with two projects I managed during the school time.
Thje groups were so excited about it and we don't even get nominated for an award!

Check out our trailers and then see what we lost to *mumbles*

Flame me with comforting words pliiiz!

Right! I'm in the city of Stockholm! Yay!

I have been placed in front of a computer with widescreen and waiting for it to finish updating with the latest files.

I'm a very happy boy since I get to assist the producers with Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 and furthermore their upcoming games of which I only got mental information about. Information I cannot reveal. ^^

I am walking with a big :D on my face!

Now I just need some cuddles! XD
