| Client: | Tylted, Inc. |
| Project Goal: | A casual puzzle game played via web browser. |
| Challenges: | The game needed appealing characters, especially the CuBugs in the title. I designed the bugs and Professor Science who guided the players through the tutorial. I collaborated heavily with the game designer and developer to invent backstory for the characters reinforcing the branding of the game. |
Appealing cute characters are crucial to the game. I advocated that we make the bugs cute and each with its own individual personality. I created each of these guys in Photshop using the handy vector drawing tools.
This is the original logo and banner add for online ads that were used at game launch. The other bugs are in shadow so the players can have fun unlocking them and discovering them.
I hand drew this character and designed him to guide the players through the tutorial of the game. I also animated him within the game.
This is a screenshot from Tylted's mobile site after the game launched. I designed the puzzle pieces that explode and turn into the Cubugs I designed. The rest of the art is by Chris Crawford. I also created promotional images for Twitter and supporting marketing material for the game.
