Block Designs

 

This game is a stacker based game where you build the biggest tower to win. so logically this game needs some blocks! The block shape we will be using for our game are the standard default blocks you find in most stacker themed games like Tetris.

We all agreed to each design two different block designs for two shapes that meant each of us were designing 4 blocks in total.  2 for the Raccoon assets and 2 for the bunny. I went with the I-block and the J-block.

The image below shows which member will be designing which block.

Malcolm= L-block and  Z-block

Cate= S- block and because we need an extra on we added a C-block

Abby=O-block and  T-block

The Images below are my 4 design for the blocks I had picked.

The blocks for the Raccoon were based on trash and half eaten fruit and the Bunny’s blocks were based on hay and fresh vegetables.

We had difficulty trying to get an art style for the blocks. Each of our blocks looked too different from each other. So, we ended up coming to the conclusion that one of us should draw/re-draw. the block designs. The next person then was to do the line art for the blocks and then pass them on to the next person to then do the flat colour. The last person would then add in shading onto the blocks.

Everyone picked which part of the process they wanted to do. I suggested the idea so I let everyone else pick first.

I ended up on design/re-designs.  The images below are the sketches of all the block designs.

 

 

I used a drawing guide that’s build into procreate to get the correct sizes for each square of the blocks. Each square is 25X25cm.

 

We all liked the look of how Malcolm did the line art in his block design so we all collectively decided that Malcolm should be the one to do the line art for the blocks, so once I was done I sent my sketches to him. When Malcolm had completed the line art, he sent Cate the line art with a transparent background so she could then do the flat colours. After Cate was done with the flat colours she sent the blocks files to Abby to be shaded.

The image below is what the blocks ended up looking like for the game.
