Great Trailer! Really love the stylized realism! Great meshing of the character and the game environment! Make sure not to miss the last couple seconds!

@JMAGameDesign Thanks! Stylized realism was definitely our goal! And that last couple seconds was actually my first time using Matinee. The level designers were putting together the cutscenes at the last minute and that was my contribution :)

@JMAGameDesign I thought you were joking but now i know you're retarded, this game is the most unrealistic I've seen in awhile lmfao

@overshotfilms08 In the courses I have taken I could try to make a flash game but then that is because I didn't take C++. But they are really good at teaching you neat stuff. I highly recommend it. Also game design is quite flexible. You will be learning aspects of visual effects, animation, illustration, writing, coding, ect. It is a great melting pot and you can learn a lot. I worked on this Rift Project and it was the best time I had ever had. I wish you luck in your time in SCAD ;)

Does scad teach you everything you need to know to put a full game together? from coding to design etc. ? i'm starting scad in 1 month and i might change my major to game design.. how is their course? and do they help you get a job somewhere? Game looks sexy btw
