Paper-Dev

Paper-Dev is a game that introduces players to game development, presented in a hand-drawn paper cutout style. I struggled with the theme for quite a while until a fellow student (shoutout to Belle) suggested I do the art jam theme "Children's Book" instead. I ended up combining the two themes which reinvigorated me to continue making the game.

I drew the art in Clip Studio Paint then imported it as planes in Blender, cut them out and extruded them to created the paper cutout look.

I wasn't happy with the initial character design so I iterated on it, making them look more like a traveler going on a quest.

Overall, this was a good experience. Even though it was grueling at times I also found it fun and rewarding. I learned a lot in a short amount of time and look forward to making more games and participating in future game jams.
