Alternate Space

"Alternate Space" is a game developed by Sodium Games in which I'm participating with art. Is a fighting -in low gravity- game with a pixel art oriented aesthetics. I'll be posting some of the work I've been making for this game here, first the logo:

This is the final logo. But it was not always like this. At the beginning...

I started making some super low res fonts.

Are those legible?

Then I sketched some rough ideas. This was the first batch:

They asked for some polishing and animation proposals for the logo's background. This came up:

They liked "D" proposal. I tried then various color schemes and font variations:

Then tried text stacked vertically and some motifs variation to see how it looked:

Sadly (for me) they preferred other font instead of the pixel artsy one. So I went and work on integrating the font.
Also try some other variations and approaches:

I'm kind of stubborn so I send a proposal for pixel art fonts. These were almost the finals:

The animation part began:

These are the finals:

The one I wished to see:

And the final Sodium Games' direction:

I've been working also in a pair of characters, I redesigned them and animate various moves.

I'll tease you this gif with the idle stance animation and the punch:

I'll write about the character redesign and the move-set animation in future posts :)
