Project #2 - PART 3 - Outcome


I spent a lot of time back and forth with people familiar with the style of Skies of Arcadia, getting feedback on some of the colour palettes. Greens and purples were too reminiscent of other characters from other franchises, so it was advised that I steered away from it. In fact, the dramatic change to yellow was welcomed since the character was seen to fit in the game space much better, according to feedback.



This is my final design for Vyse's brother. 



As a character within Skies of Arcadia, he would be as part of an optional mission. 
To put it briefly, Vyse's brother broke away from the Blue Rogues years ago after a falling out with Dyne (Vyse's father) and since resenting the man. Disagreeing with his principles and disliking Vyse for following their father so blindly, the character became a Black Pirate in order to do as he saw fit, to prove that he didn't need any of the Blue Rogues or their morals.

The player as Vyse would be able to choose to engage with Vyse's brother, to take on this optional mission. Vyse would be forced to fight his brother to stop him from trying to launch a spite attack on the Blue Rogues. This would unravel back-story about several characters that are otherwise unexplored during Skies of Arcadia.
