Week 8: Game Board Pieces
Craft: Both the game piece designs were made using Adobe Illustrator. I first decided what type of symbols would be good to represent the game as game pieces. Since the setting takes place in outer space, I though space related pieces would be the most logical. For my three game pieces, I chose a planet, star, and a piece shaped like the hero of the game, I started out with the planet. I researched online to see if there were existing game pieces in this design. After finding one, I traced it in Adobe Illustrator using the pen tool, then colored each aspect of the design such as the globe, ring, and the base of the design. The other pieces were made by simply copying and pasting other tracings I previously made.
Concept: The goal of the project was to create game pieces that related to the game created in a logical way.
Composition: The composition was quite simple being that the figure or symbol had to be centered on the base of the game piece. using the Shape Builder Tool was useful in merging separate components together, such as the star, post, and base of the piece.
