“It’s a feature”

Project name: Black Sun

Role: 3D Animator, Character Rigger

Team size: 12

created: 06/2016 - 08/2016

Engine: Unity

Black Sun is a single player RPG created during my first games workshop course of my undergrad at UCf. Black Sun has a special place in my heart. It may have had many issues: terribly scoped, lack of design and direction, but it was the first project that I truly felt the pressure and pushed myself. Every weekend we would crunch together, fueled by stress and self loathing, we pushed on the complete this herculean task we started. I plunged myself into ‘all’ the tutorials, into ‘all’ the learning. It was a lot of late nights and caffeine, but it was worth it to come out of it stronger.
