Personal project, 2019
In this project, I wanted to explore horror themes in keyframe concept illustrations. It's a subject matter that I am very fond of but never worked on professionally. I took a week off from my day job to develop the scenes and character designs below.
I imagined the player character as a new recruit of a Japanese police force that stumbles upon a mystery that pulls him deeper into the unknown territory where these horrors originate from. As you progress through the game, you find remains of modern soldiers that have been here before you, allowing you to equip more advanced weapons and protection.
Rough ideas of enemy types. I wanted them to appear as dream-like warped abominations of a human figure.
