✏️ Charatcer design series: Hooman 👴🏻
Welcome back to our game devblog! Today, we're thrilled to dive into the character concept and design process of Hooman, the second main character in our upcoming game. Hooman's journey from grumpiness to newfound joy is a central element of our game's narrative, and his design needed to reflect his complex personality and emotional dynamics.
Character Description
Hooman is an old and grumpy man who recently became a widower. He may not seem like the friendliest person at first glance, but beneath his stern exterior lies a vulnerable soul. His character design must convey this duality effectively.
Backstory
Hooman's backstory plays a crucial role in shaping his character design. Born and raised on the sunny shores of the Mediterranean Sea, he spent over five decades working at the local waterworks. This job made him a stern and serious individual who often pushed people away. However, his soft spot for his late wife, Georgina, and his challenging relationship with his daughter, Olivia, offer a glimpse into his more tender side.
Exploring Shapes and Personality
To create a visual representation of Hooman, our design team explored various shapes and visual elements. We wanted to find a balance that reflected both his gruff exterior and his inner vulnerability.
Emotional Dynamics and Transformation
Hooman's character design is not static; it is a reflection of his emotional transformation throughout the game. Initially grumpy and isolated, he gradually learns the importance of patience and kindness through his interactions with Domino the cat. His character design will evolve to mirror this emotional journey, with subtle changes in his emotions as he becomes more open and expressive.
Social Isolation
Hooman's preference for solitude and his gruff exterior are evident in his character design. He will be portrayed as someone who doesn't readily engage with others, making his eventual transformation all the more powerful.
In conclusion, Hooman's character design is a careful blend of visual elements that reflect his grumpy exterior and inner vulnerability. As players embark on his emotional journey in our game, they will witness a transformation not only in his personality but also in his visual representation.
