The Fish That Took Your Dad

You wash on the shore of an abandoned island. Your dad has been abducted by a mysterious fish and it is up to you to find him. Reel in a variety of sealife and do battle to catch them. This free roam RPG fishing game won the award for best digital game at Illinois State University's 2024 game showcase and was developed in under 4 months for my Creative Technologies capstone.

I worked as the character designer, illustrator, and animator on this project. I produced the final assets for the player character, NPC, and enemies seen in the game. All assets were hand animated, Including the first person overhead which blended 2D arms with the 3D environment. I also created the game's logo.
