I this project, my main work was to create concept art for character, environment. The other works I did with the 3D environment in the game was for example: create different textures for the terrains in the game, create sprites for the flowers and grass which also contribute to the visual of the environment.Additionally, this was also the first project where I could learn texturing 3D models with Substance Painter.
CHARACTER DESIGN
Devy - Mascot Design
Materials on this site are not peer-reviewed nor Assessed.
Devy is a character I illustrated from ideas brainstormed by me and other members while working on Capstone project. This project includes our bachelor thesis and a game called Memento Tori where Devy becomes a mascot who gives guidance to players.While brainstorming about the characteristics of Devy, me and my teammates put down answers to some simple questions such as What is their name? Their occupation? How do they serve the role we give them in the game? How would they react to events in the game?

In short, the name is Devy and they are a game developer who created the game Memento Tori, they are nerdy and clumsy while they spend most of their time studying computer science. Devy tutor the player how to progress in their game Memento Tori, but due to their clumsy behavior, the situation becomes worse and funny through out the game.

As our final decision to go with the visual design of Devy is option 3, I have created a character sheet, as well as an expression sheet so my teammates can create a 3D model and animation for Devy.
