Gamoteca creates simple role-playing games to teach trainees various skills and improve their collaborative thinking. The job required a huge variety of illustrated scenes and actions performed by different characters. Rather than create individual illustrations, we (The Random Lines) built an intelligent library of modular assets that fit together like puzzle pieces.

Depending on what was needed for each scene in the game, the software would apply a background, then choose one of the characters, adjusting expression, add their hand performing a particular action, and drop in any objects that were involved. Infinite possibilities. One of the exciting moments was designing a culturally diverse set of characters, all with the same head shape and skin tone because everyone’s hands needed to be the same!
