The character art style was kept minimalist to reduce the animation and rigging
timeframe. More detail was added to the eyes of the character in order to invoke
a stronger personality, enabling a stronger attachment towards the protagonist.
In Rive, a small eye rig was created to enable them to follow the cursor, then
lighting adjustments were layered over the final screen to bring the 'sci fi' scene
to life. It was important that the scene felt exciting but left plenty of mystery to
ensure the player would continue further.

Assets created for future game development, showcasing
the art style and one of the key characters from the game.
I found it was only necessary to use the main character as the
focus of the game menu to emphasise the minimalist aesthetic
and not detract away from the other menu elements..
