Skyward

Date:
2024

Purpose:
a fictional mobile game - a project during my studies at FH Joanneum

Description:
This project was one of the most intense and enjoyable experiences. The goal was to design a game encompassing storyboard, character design, world building, etc., while integrating the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) into the storyline.
I implemented the SDGs "Affordable and Clean Energy" and "Climate Action."
I did all the illustrations/drawings in the Procreate App on my iPad.

About the Game:
In Skyward, you control a creature inspired by the greater glider animal, a climate refugee seeking escape from a world threatened by continuous rain. During its journey, our protagonist Fei discovers a new, unexplored world above the clouds: Skyward.
The local community of tree kangaroos inadvertently causes the heavy rain due to their unsustainable energy use, disrupting the entire ecosystem.
By helping villagers, solving puzzles and completing tasks, Fei finds solutions to end the relentless rain. Fei helps create sustainable energy sources like windmills, solar energy and hydroelectric power plants, restoring the world to its natural state.

Skyward is more than just a game; it's an unforgettable adventure where you shape the destiny of a world on the brink, discovering the strength of resilience and renewable energy.
