This Year, I am working on Arboreal Hotel. It is a Cosy game that I conceptualized more than one year ago now, inspired by the joy of reveiving guests and pleasure of sharing. At that time, my mother had an app to listen and categorize bird sounds from birds in our garden. That's how this game about a magic tree becoming the shelter of birds from all around the world was born.
As one of the two artists on the game I work on the environment but as an aspiring 3D character artist who loves rigging and animating, I work mostly on the birds of the game!
The Blue Jay is my first bird to try the whole pipeline that I document here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1znwyn4rhmQV6MPVUQuHjrqnHhHl3R2DL/view?usp=sharing
