"Cryptid" AFK Games
This is Cryptid, the main character that we play as in the Cryptid game!
The Cryptid's eyes have a slight red glow both to add to the horror of this friendly monster and also help him pop out in darker environments.
The Cryptid is a Chicken-Boy-Hybrid! Every chicken boy loves a little chicken dance! (The animation is from Mixamo)
These are the assets for the Simon Says puzzles in the game.
The Simon Says assets have a slight glow to be easily recognizable in colorful and darker lighting.
These are the Auto Spike assets. The Auto Spike is made of one base and the spikes. The spikes are animated in the game and pop out to damage the player.
Chicken Hat award (is awarded to the player when they collect enough feather items in the game)
The Feathers on the chicken hat are made of cards. The lore of the hat ties to the main characters mother.
There are two different vents in the game that both act differently and help the character in different ways. I made different props for each vent to make it easier for the player to tell the difference.
The worm prop is the HP prop in the game and is also glows in darker environments.

For this project I collaborated with Tim Dingwall and Halie Deskiewicz, as we collectively created the Game Art for "Cryptid" under the banner of AFKGames.
This project holds particular significance as it served as my first venture into live video game production. Over the course of approximately one month, we dedicated ourselves to create the assets integral to the game's experience.
"Cryptid" presents players with three distinct environments: the Mansion, the laboratory, and the outdoor expanse of the forest. Within this world, players assume the role of the adorably horrifying protagonist known as the Cryptid, a hybrid entity combining the traits of both a human and a chicken. Their objective is to deftly navigate these environments, evading enemies and staying undetected throughout their journey.
Through careful attention and putting lots of hours into artistic expression, our team strived to create visually pleasing and cohesive art assets that integrate with the overall gameplay. This collaborative endeavor has not only provided us with invaluable experience but has also set a solid foundation for our future pursuits!
The Hat mesh itself was made by Tim and modified by me. I added feathers, did the UVing and Texturing as well. Tim made different props in the game such as the Axe, Keycard, the Baton and more!
