I was involved in most parts of this project. I independently completed all character designs and rigging, as well as cleaning and retargeting motion capture data. Additionally, I also contributed to gameplay design, writing, and scene design.
This is a Visual Novel Game (a form of digital semi-interactive fiction, combine a textual narrative with static or animated illustrations and a varying degree of interactivity ) where the player takes on the role of a detective investigating the room of a virtual idol who has committed suicide. The game is divided into 4 steps, each step opens up interactions with different objects, revealing clues and reasons behind her death.
