My Contributions

Character Design

At the beginning of the project, I was supposed to only work as the UI designer, but due to a shortage of people to work on the project, I was also tasked with designing the characters. During the pre-production, the script for the game was not yet done, and all I had was a short summary and descriptions of the characters that would appear in the game, they did not even have names yet. The director wanted a painting-like quality to the visuals of the game, which was quite a struggle for me to do at the beginning as my art-style is line heavy, but I manage to get the hang of it eventually.

Here is an example of my design process for the Fiancé character:
