It's Haunt Time
Description:
It’s Haunt Time! is a cute spook-em-up 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!
Background:
This game was a vertical-slice prototype for a Games Workshop I class. This app only has Android capability. Due to a smaller team of 6 people, everyone wore multiple hats and did many different aspects of the game. I was a supporting artist to our Art Lead so I did all of the hand-drawn 2D animations for the human within the game as well as the UI art. I created the final level/puzzle design in the vertical slice.
The biggest challenge with this game was to make the puzzle intuitive to the player. We wanted to avoid depending on tutorials so that any child of any age will be able to play the game even if they didn’t know how to read.
This is the final iteration of the UI elements that I created for the game.
These are some of the hand-drawn 2D animation strips I made for the human.
