Isa
Artist/ Game Designer
I moved from Bahrain to Manchester with a burning motivation to create my own independent game. Enrolling in MMU’s MA Games Art course, I focused on character art and exploring shader building. My independent project’s proof of concept, Folly of the New Age fulfils this through exploring how game production techniques can be used to create evocative story worlds, while also striving to develop a novel style of rendering that diverges from what is commonly seen in major game titles.
