A última entrega: explorando a criação de personagens para jogos digitais

Abstract

This following Graduation Project Paper aimed to investigate the creative process for the future video game “A Última Entrega”, with emphasis on the initial stages of digital game development, particularly the elaboration of concept art and its ramifications. For this purpose, five characters were developed, whose final designs were presented in character sheets, which served as references for the production of two illustrations inspired by splash art and one pixel art. For this process, a narrative was constructed and both the visual style of the future production and aspects related to mechanics and gameplay were defined. In order to understand these stages and identify visual solutions applicable to the project, works by illustrators in the field of digital games were analyzed, as well as productions by painters and animations.
