Viktor & Magnus Nyström
Senior Artists at Arrowhead Game Studios
Twin artists Magnus and Viktor Nyström studied Game Art in Skövde from 2008-11 and have since worked on a bunch of different games. Most recently, they've spent 10 years (and counting) at Arrowhead GS making art for the swedish smash hit "Helldivers 2", a long and exciting development that they would like to share more of with you in their talk called simply, "The Art of Helldivers 2".
Talk
The Art of Helldivers 2
Helldivers 2 wears it's inspiration on it's sleeve, but making something new from all of that wasn't always easy, and throughout the 10 years of it's development, the project and the art team faced many different challenges. This talk will tell the story of all the twist and turns we faced, as well as highlight some broader challenges and how to conquer them when it comes to working with art within the games industry in general.
