Game prototype
Last year, I collaborated with two friends: a programmer and a game designer, to create a game prototype. We ended up going for something else, and here's what remains of that prototype. It was a blast to work on world-building, asset creation, and iterate on art styles, as well as to handle various aspects of the job like rigging, animation, VFX, concept,etc...
In engine with all assets
Asset kit
Mockup based on paintover
At some point, I tried handpainted stuff on this guy. It was pretty cool but time consuming!
All assets are texture with albedo only
Concept for obstacles
Some iteration on character classes
Exploring ideas for the worlds
VFX test
Ground textures done with Substance Designer, it was fun to find a balance with black ink for a comic feeling
PIXELZ! Before finding the final art style, I tried pixel art on 3D
It was actually pretty convincing on hard surface model but very tricky on organic stuff
Test on 3DCoat, the pixel resolution was way too high to understand it was pixel art from the camera angle
Better pixel resolution
Thanks for watching!
