RootN'Shoot was my very FIRST game jam project where I had the specific role as a Game Artist with Ben syles overseeing my work and in the end everything visual in the game was made or influenced by me.
The process was very interesting and I learned the most out of game production, release and build work from this event. The theme was 'roots' and the task was to create a game from that one word so as a team we debated and discussed what to do in the studio where the game was to be made.
The game jam lasted very little and we had breaks and time to spare for ohrselves in between and with all that being said the assets, art and amazing work flow we had at the time was unmatched and I feel I created and cemented a new way to work since then.
The game is a 2D stylised Golf simulator where you play as a seed trying to avoid crashing into yourself so the strategy and visuals were the main focal point of this game in the end!
This was a very enjoyable experience and the programmer Nathan did work well with the assets provided despite the fact that every visual asset in the game was made on an Ipad which helped production and elevated my skills.
