What is good my homies. We are almost halfway through our summer pre-production phase! Our current goal is to finish our first prototype of the core game loop by the end of this month!

While that’s going on, we’ve also created a Home Base team made up of UI artists, Designers, and Engineers! Home Base is going to be the central hub when your character is out of combat. Everything from narrative, upgrading, troop management, and level selection will all happen here. Our interdisciplinary Home Base team will be independent, tackling the design-to-implementation pipeline as a whole!

Art

Art team has officially moved to the 3D stage, with concept being revisioned constantly and characters and props being modeled!

We also started an asset list!

We’re also starting to make out first iterations of skill trees for our player classes! Overall w asf work

Participants were then tasked with recreating a button from one of their favorite game UIs. We wanted this activity to help our homebase team and eager figma learners become more comfortable in creating UI components using Sigma and understand each component of a UI asset (a button!) It also allows to
