Zap Colony development is progressing nicely and I've been working lately on game UI, menus and controls. I also decided that since the game progression focuses on getting high scores and climbing the galactic leaderboards, I want the top-tens to be populated with some interesting characters that will bring some life and character to the Zap Colony universe.
After some doodling in Adobe Illustrator, below you can see a first batch of characters I came up with.
As you can see, Zap Colony galaxy is a diverse and quirky place ;)
I plan to use the characters in several ways - as unlocks you can collect, a way to personalize your profile avatar, and most importantly as your rivals on the Galactic Leaderboards you must climb to unlock next levels in the game's progression.
As always, take care and thanks for your time!
