Magikin
Overview
MagiKin is a local multiplayer top-down shooter with a strong focus on hand-painted 2D art. Players embody powerful wizards from rival families, battling in dynamic arenas using inherited spells and abilities. I led the art direction and designed the full UI/UX, shaping a cohesive and immersive experience from the ground up.
Art Direction
The visual identity is built around expressive, hand-painted 2D art, which extends from the UI to the environments. Character designs are procedurally generated based on pre-defined compositions and tested visual styles, using custom assets I created to ensure consistency and variety. Each arena was hand-painted and populated with destructible elements to reinforce the game’s fast, reactive pacing.
