<h3>What is MythII Soulblighter</h3>
<p>Myth is a real time tactical game based on squad and unit management rather than resource gathering and expansion. Thanks to a realistic physics engine and meticulous unit balance, gameplay is highly varied and flexible. Originally released by Bungie in 1997, Myth defined a completely new genre. However, with today&#8217;s standards in hardware, the game has grown somewhat dated. With development now the responsibility of the community, Project Magma have brought Myth up to date. You can also play Myth online, both cooperatively and competitively. The faithful fan community that has sprung up around the game as a result, has produced an incredible array of 3rd party maps and add-ons that have further extended the life of the series.</p>
<p>All these add-ons were created with the provided map editors that came with the game, Photoshop, Cinema 4D and a variety of community created tools.</p>

<p>Over the years I&#8217;ve developed a lot of different projects for MythII, all of them offering different strategic gameplay elements such as teleports and a large wall dividing the teams, and graphical challenges such as optimizing sprites, file sizes and color limits. below is a list of some of the larger projects:</p>
<ul>
<li>Myth3 for Myth2 (Unreleased)</li>
<li>Aztec Oranges (Beta)</li>
<li>The Bridge (SF2) <a href="http://www.projectmagma.net/projects/spforces2/trailer/LARGE/SF2_Trailer_Large.html">SF2 Trailer</a></li>
<li><a href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/items/show/special-forces-2">Divided by Hate (SF2)</a></li>
<li><a href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/items/show/grazz-wat0r-and-a-big-tree">Grass, Water and a big Tree</a></li>
</ul>

<p>Een webgame gebaseerd op een Kaart van Amsterdam voor het Amsterdams Historisch Museum. in de game speel je een alien die de weg kwijt is geraakt en op aarde is neergestort, hij is op het Amsterdams historisch museum neergekomen en door de klap zijn alle objecten uit het museum door de stad verspreid. Aan de speler om de objecten uit het museum terug te vinden, en op de juiste plek terug in de collectie te zetten. Ondertussen leert de speler over de geschiedenis van Amsterdam en leert hij ook de stad kennen.</p>
<p>Het spel is dynamisch gemaakt zodat de objecten en thema&#8217;s altijd anders zijn, hierdoor blijft het leuk voor kinderen om te spelen.</p>
<p>Voor dit project heb ik het concept, technisch concept, technische demo, karakters, en de in interface ontwikkeld. Samen met Lennard de Kok heb ik de tussen-animaties gemaakt die het verhaal vertellen en de thema&#8217;s toelichten.</p>
