Mindflyer’s Tangs Christmas Hunt

Posted: November 25th, 2010 | Author: mindflyer | Filed under: portfolio | Tags: , , , , , | 9 Comments »

This is my new game illustration for Tangs Christmas Hunt. Had the opportunity to work on another game with Kevin of Spoon for Tangs. Basically the brief is pretty open- make it Christmassy and it should look really busy visually. We explored some direction before settling on an Alice in Wonderland inspired fantasy city.

I am one of those mad people that love challenges like this. Had a real good time doing this illustration even though the timing was shorter than I would have preferred.

Do try and  play the game and win the prizes. Link is here.

    @Shyam – thx :D
    1. Like what Jerry commented on FB – it is organised chaos – I work with almost 7 different modules of items and some hand tweaking to get the messy look.
    2. Its just isometric. So everything aligns to a grid.

    Lol Shyam – It’s as much “donkey work” as $600000 is “peanuts” :p
