Looper

Character Design

Description:

Looper

Looper is a character I created for a game created for Slice of Jam 2022, which is a 48-hour game jam. The game, titled “Live For a Spell”, follows a powerful magician who is approached by an estranged friend who is stuck in a time loop and needs help getting out of it. It’s a visual novel and was created by myself and three others. The entire game is from the point of view of the magician, so the only character visualized is the “estranged friend” who is stuck in a time loop. The main design of this friend, who we called Looper, is someone who has clearly been suffering from something exhausting and is very tired and worn-out looking. He is also an amputee, due to a magic experiment the two had performed together going wrong; this was also the reason the former friends became more like enemies. Because it was a visual novel, it was my job to not only design the character, but also illustrate him having several different facial expressions to be used in different scenes of the game. I ended up creating 8 variations.

The character sheet was made in Adobe Photoshop.
