I was in charge of multiple tasks for a TCG project called 'Skyweaver' from Horizon Blockchain Games. It was a challenge as this game runs on browser and had promises to work on any phone, so we had to keep things fairly simple and optimized. It was also quite a challenge to deal with the concept of their arena being specifically a floating circular island with physical floating cards hovering on the island itself.
---
I was also assigned to jump to multiple different aspects of the teams project, from working with the tech artists and making the UI optimized and clean to then jumping back to concepts and idea exploration.
---
I produced the 3D card models, the full arena environment along with concepts. I worked with a team to design/animate a 'frozen' state card effect, and glowing effects on the arena floor.
---
I was given more tasks soon after to improve their mana tokens on the cards, developed the 'prism' symbol elements for the cards, and also illustrated a few creatures/characters in their style in the beta stage of the project.
