ShipIt


2.5D Horror Dating Simulator


Aboard a cruise ship, you romanticize the passengers through dialogue and minigames. However, as you try to swoon over the other cruise guests, they mysteriously start to be killed off... 


I worked as a 3D Modeler, texture, and sprite animator for this student project.

Context

This was my send to final project at UC Santa Cruz where I would work with a team of 10 to create a "game slice" using Unreal Engine 5.


Over a 3 month span, this experience would prove to be a big learning experience not just with 3D modeling and texturing, but with proper team coordination.


Work and Experience

I worked as a 3D Modeler, texturer, and sprite animator


We set a large goal for ourselves with this "game slice" as we devised to make a dating simulator with a horror twist. However, with poor communication, we were unable to achieve a demonstrable amount of the horror we envisioned. 


I take this as a great learning experience, as projects going forward, I emphasize communication and consistent meetings.. 


Contributions | Modeling + Texture

I helped create 3D assets and 2D pixel textures to decorate the cruise


Using Blender I was able to 3D model assets and using Photoshop I was able to pixel texture the UVs


Contributions | Pixel Art

I contributed with pixel art + animations. 


I made the bar bell animation + its UI assets for the gym minigame.
