Hawken King Design


Castle Seige

Client: yoo media
Role: art direction
Date: September 1st, 2004

Our client asked us if it could be possible to make a target shooting game on the iTV platform, Dan Croucher (our game designer) came up with a few technical possiblities for the game, alone with themes and we were settled on a castle. Originally I wanted to do a sand castle or ice palace, these looked damn nice in the first renders from my artist John however the client wanted a medieval castle, which made me think of cutout shapes, the above graphics were realised!
I think this is one of the more creative games we made for Yoo, with the usual high quality we put into everything that really did make our games stand out from the usual clones. This game went on to be re-skinned as a “lord of the rings” style castle a bit later on.
