Me and some other people at Fukushima Game Jam in Worcester, MA are working on a kite fighting game called Kite Fite (working title). All of the characters are monsters from Japanese mythology and the kite designs are based on Nagasaki hata kites used in actual kite fighting in Japan. I am doing the art! I’m going for a minimalist, low poly 3D similar to Animal Crossing/Katamari. The character sprites are 2D with fronts and backs similar to Paper Mario characters.

The basic gameplay involves flying your kite through weak points in the other character’s kite’s strings. It is still being ironed out… Anyway excited to be working on this cool project! We’ll be finishing at 4:00 AM on Sunday EST.
