Final Project – Kurtis Kiai

My project – Dystopian Prison My game is based around a child known as Dexa who has lived in the shadows of a dystopian city located between Russia and China. The player has to collect all dark orbs present in the alleyways in order to escape the grimy world, but beware of the bright lights…

Mid-Term Environment + Textures – Kurtis Kiai

Being my first experiences with Maya, the game assets were leaning a bit on the box-y side of things, but I think it came out well. This is the starting alleyway of the game. The signs in the game were meant to be neon lights, but I couldn’t get fog assets to import to Unity…

Modular Build Kit – Kurtis Kiai

Been working on getting one building done and dusted, and then using it as a template for the rest of the buildings. I will replace most colors with textures but I added them to make it understandable. I tested out neon signs and glow effects, but it was not able to port into Unity with…

Kurtis – Game Design Proposal

For my game, I am looking to create a dystopian city where you will be playing an assassin called Dexa. Dexa lost both of her parents and was forced into the streets to fend for herself. On the brink of hunger, she was offered a dark, misty elixir from an old merchant which molded her…
