“Welcome to Dark Fantasy Boss Rush, a prototype of a game where you must take on an opponent many times mightier than you! Play as a noble protagonist whose blade is as sharp as their spirit is strong. Outmaneuver a seemingly unfair boss and claim victory.
In this game, I worked as a game designer, providing a robust 2D combat system. Dark Fantasy Boss Rush is an attempt to emulate the combat flow of souls-like games.
Additionally, I provided core 2D sprite animations in a pixel-art style, with powerful vfx lines, to create a satisfying combat experience.
DFBR was my first time working with pixel art, I wanted to use a character that is simple to animate, while possessing a iconic silhouette. This is so I can fully focus on the VFX of the actions, and a black cat styled protagonist seemed to fit the bill!
