DISOBEY was made for DigiPen's Gam200 project, which is to create a game from scratch with a custom engine. This was a group project with 8 people where I worked on both unity and the custom engine to create, implement & deliver on all the art aspects. That includes background, player sprites, UI & cutscenes, VFX. My primary role was art but I participated in the logic creation for enemies & main character
Other Contributions:

- Cutscene & Json Implementation in custom engine
- Creating and scheduling meetings & documents for the team.
Production Journey
Art Lead
As the Art lead, I was in charge of ALL of the art. Yes. Everything. In the span of 6 short months I created everything art related in the game. With that, a ton of ideation. We went for a pixel art style so that it was less taxing on our engine.
Along with that, I implemented all of the JSON code for each sprite & animation inside the game itself.
First thing's first is the moodboards to get the feel of the style the game.

Once the moodboard is done, I work on the sketches and ideation for the character
Early concepts on outfit & enemy

Then I move onto the animating. I wanted the background to be dull. While the character and her graffiti to be bright colors, to show the contrast
