Astralis: An Interactive Visual Novel
2024
This project was created by a team of four, including myself, for a collaborative studio course that I took Fall of Spring of 2024. My role in this project was mainly Background Design and Illustration, while also having a part in Character Design.

Final Wiran Character Concept Designs
Characters Billy (Left) and Oliver (Right)
These character designs were developed with a simplistic art style that utilizes uniform line weight and cell shading. The visual novel titled "Astralis" is centered around the city of Astralis and its polarized population, with every citizen siding with either the use of magic or technology in their daily lives. My character designs are of those who use technology that call themselves the "Wiran", as opposed the magic-centered "Drey". The Wiran's design incorporates baggy clothing, elements of their developing technology, and asymmetrical apparel in contrast to the Drey's tight and orderly appearance.
