Wild Tanks
Wild Tanks was a project to revamp and rebuild an old prototype AS2 game featuring Worms style turn based game-play.
Working with a programmer, together we carefully discussed and planned out revised game mechanics and user interface. Contemplating how the game could be improved and made more user friendly.
Part of the design process involved re-imagining the customisable tank assets. This required multiple variations per item (tank body, track and cannon). The design of the tanks was inspired by games such as Metal Slug, giving the tanks a cartoony appeal. This was intended to broaden the audience of the game and offer a more approachable feel, rather than taking a more realistic approach and narrowing the potential user base.
