    "Flipside" is computer game produced by a team of me and 11 other students from different academic studies with a computer game focus around Denmark. We developed the concept as well as one fully functional level within a month in order to demonstrate the concept. I worked as composer and audiodesigner on the game.

    "Flipside" was awarded with the price "2008 IGF Student Showcase Award" at the ”Independent Games Festival” in San Francisco, which is one of the main events of the year in the computer game business. Our team was represented at the festival in February 2008 to present our game. Furthermore we had a showcase, where we talked about the concept behind the game and the development process. Besides the award "Flipside" gained a lot of media coverage - both in Denmark and abroad - primarily due to its alternative, ”tactile” aesthetics.
