Magic and Mysteries
Changeling is a VR mystery, first-person 3D platformer game made by Xana Adhoc Studios. It is built upon the idea of magical realism and a sense of unease and wonder. I worked with my art team, as well as development and writing teams to create assets including illustrations, character designs, web assets, and more.
Because of Changeling's themes of magic and surreal concepts, it allowed me to experiment with settings and styles. I also learned about the character creation pipeline, starting with writing backstories to making a fully modelled character.
Illustrations
Each character had a series of illustrations associated with their memories. These images would be shown to players to give them more insight to their backgrounds.
Character Designs
Many characters received visual overhauls during my time on the project, and I was in charge of reimagining them in a different style. I also created concept art and character sheets for several new characters.
Extras
I also created a few other assorted assets, such as web graphics, textures, and rough concept art.
Takeaways
It was wonderful getting to work with a talented team on a collaborative project. I was able to work with teams of writers, developers, artists, and more. It allowed me to gain insight into the art to 3D pipeline, and how developers implement assets.
