Following up, you can see the character concept I created for the peasant Sepp. A kind-hearted guy who would do anything for his king.

"Once there lived a mighty king, who wanted to go on a walk with his townspeople. But what happens when their path is blocked by deadly spikes?

Simple. The king sacrifices his peasants to the deadly spikes to create a safe path.”

This is the description of Dwarf, a 2D jump-and-run prototype game which I developed during my studies at the Lucerne School of Design, Film and Art.

Together with my team of one programmer and one other 2D artist, we continued working on the game in our free time.

A character concept I created for Dwarf was meant to be an additional peasant, but it was discarded for better readability of the characters and to make it easier to distinguish between the king and the peasants.
