I'm designing and prototyping my own game. After being obsessed with playing Two Point Hospital by Two Point Studios I felt the urge to make something similar myself, and so I'm creating a business simulation game where you get to run your own hospital. I'm writing a design document and coding a prototype in Unreal Engine 5 Blueprints.

Worldbuilding & Writing
Norden
I'm writing a novel. Imagine a completely deaf world slowly turning hearing again. How would it and its people adjust? That's what I'm exploring when writing Norden.
Norden is a story about finding your own place in a world divided between two people. It's about segregation and fear of one another, but also common ground and acceptance.
I started by working out a setting and a world before proceeding with writing the actual story. I'm currently 35 000 words in and am planning on having a first draft done in 2025.
Out now on Steam and Xbox Series X|S

Dreams of a Dandelion
A game in progress by Jonathan Börjesson
In an open world RPG, a samurai of feudal Japan finds a necklace lost in the forest floor. Tied to the sense of duty, the samurai sets out to find the necklace's owner. During his travels through dangerous surroundings and hostile encounters, the samurai discovers the necklace to be something out of the ordinary. See, the necklace guides not only itself home, but in some ways the samurai too.
I was hired to write a storyline for the complete game as well as specific scenes and game course for its demo based on samurai culture and feudal Japan. My tasks mainly surrounded research, characters, quests and game events.

Thesis
Agency and its impact on parasocial romantic relationships
For my bachelor thesis, me and a classmate researched how much and what impact Actual Fictional Agency had on parasocial romantic relationships (PSROM) with a dating simulator. While researching we found two opposite points made about dating simulators and PSROMs. On one hand, having full control and agency in dating simulators is why players choose to play them instead of finding real relationships. On the other hand, taking some agency away from the player creates more authentic PSROMs and deeper player investment. The thesis debates whether both these points are true and how they can exist simultaneously.
The thesis project was a collaboration between me and classmate Josefine Stiberg. We shared most tasks evenly between us with the exception that I were responsible for programming and Stiberg for graphics.
