Elvish Characters: part 1

One huge problem that we have found in developing this game is how to populate the world. What kind of people are in this world? We've tried to stick to the concept that the hero elf is invading Santa's North Pole, so at least there are a lot of elves.

One interesting thing that you might notice from these illustrations is that the character designer, Krystal Downs, designed variations from the Main Elf. Most have the same body shape, and face, but one has a beard, another has a helmet. Only the Guard Elf is different from the others. This helped Krystal design characters quickly, and also helped me in to create the characters quickly.

The director, Mike,  advised Krystal to develop four elves:
1) Main Elf

2) Guard Elf

3) Stable Elf

4) Rider Elf

These were all great places to start, and you can see each of these four elves in the first level, which is available as a demo at:
