Game Content Revisited

Hi again! You probably noticed the picture above is different from my previous post. The updated image is courtesy of my friend Teyon (link). Last year I shared with him the idea for this project and my desired for the Mixamo character to be a black child. At the time, Teyon was working on his own personal He-Man sculpt, but volunteered to update the Mixamo texture for me. It turned out amazing and I'm really fortunate that he did this because it probably would have taken a lot for me to even get close to this result.

If you're wondering why I chose to changed the main character's skin color, the best answer that I can offer is that it just felt right to me. Given the opportunity to make a third-person game, I really wanted to have someone running around on screen that I felt connected to. This decision definitely made this project more meaningful to me and made me even more excited to get him doing some cool stuff. I hope that I'll be able to do right by him and I'm really excited to see where things go. Thanks for reading.
