A cutesy "puzzle" game for mobile games
Description
It’s Haunt Time! is a cute spooky puzzle game designed for mobile devices. You play as Hatto, a ghost trying his best to win the Scare Championships. Help Hatto scare the human; you’ll have to navigate his house, interacting with the environment to overcome ephemeral-repelling obstacles like fans, salt, and even a scary cat. Do your best and go for the gold!y
Background
This game was developed in my Games Workshop I class as a vertical-slice prototype, with plans for more levels/features in the future.
As the main character artist I was tasked with designing and animating a simple and cute main character for the game. I had a lot of back and forth with the lead artist about the character and what his design should look like. I did my best to iterate Hatto’s design based on the feedback I received and create a cute main character that people could connect with.
One of the biggest challenges I faced was honestly the schedule. We had a rather awkward schedule for when our meetings were and what needed to happen after. It was just a busy schedule all around, but it got easier once we got in the groove.
