Update #1: Concept Arts | Story

One of the funniest moments at the very early stage of the project was when Daniel our concept artist created the basis of the universe of our game and the characters.
The story is inspired by Dogon mythology (The Dogon are a tribe living in a desert land of Mali). The venture will take you through various levels that were inspired by great Africa kingdoms of the ancient era. The levels will also feature secret locations where one might wonder, what would they stumble upon… friend or foe, treasure, or trap?

During the game, you’ll discover several cultures and you’ll be at the heart of some conflicts, you’ll be accompanied in his quests by endearing and mysterious characters, as well as traitors, without forgetting the gigantic deities that will support and help you during the journey.

For the vertical slice of the game, we create the 3D version of some of our creatures. Gitonga, our 3D character artist brings a big smile on our faces, giving form to concepts art we did when developing the storyline.
