Ah, GDC trip prevented me from uploading the slides from my lecture at the Universidad Politécnica de Cataluña on March 16th 2006. Here you go! Edit: Updated with the latest version of the slides.
They are in Spanish, and if you have read other slides from previous lectures, most of the material will ring a bell. Call me lazy, but there’s a reason for that: lectures aimed at general audiences (any student at the University) can’t dive too much on the details of technical issues or they will necessarily alienate parts of the audience who don’t have the necessary background. Therefore, I basically try to give a good overview of what’s involved in the business of professional videogame development: history, process, team composition and a few bits of philosophy. The real meat is in the Q&A session, anyway. 🙂
The Gamelab at the Universidad de Oviedo has kindly invited me to give another lecture on July 13th, and with the expectation of a fairly technical audience, it will contain new and more in-depth material.
Hello Jare,
Will you upload as well those slides? That would be great!
Thanks
Nice to see you again in Barcelona!
Just a comment… In your last lecture, you were saying all the time "eventualmente" with the meaning of "finalmente". I guess you’re confusing English with Spanish and using an incorrect translation of "eventually" 😉
Cheers,

Sabía que alguien iba a dar el coñazo con el tema del catalán, pero por ejemplo este link me sugiere que ni siquiera la propia UPC está de acuerdo contigo. 🙂 Tampoco conozco a nadie que diga "me voy a London a sufrir el mal tiempo típico de United Kingdom", de modo que en mis traspas seguirá poniendo el nombre completo de la UPC en castellano.
Respecto a cómo escribirlo en los posts del blog, "Technical University of Catalonia" es el nombre que usan en inglés, pero probablemente resulte menos claro.
Eres un monstruo Jare, lo supe desde que jugué al Stardust en mi queridísimo Spectrum.
Saludos
