Feedback from the client

This week we had some feedback from the client, and it wasn't all good, in the sense that they disagreed with our idea of using teenage characters in a fire fighting game. So, we basically had two different options: keep the characters and change the entire concept of the game, or keep the game idea and recreate a new set of characters.

It wasn't exactly pleasant, especially because we were quite far down the game production, but we did understand their point of view, The Fire Department did not want children attempting to fight fire, that was not the message they intended to convey through this game. 

So this being said, and time being very limited now, we had to regroup and reorganise ourselves.

We have come up with the idea of creating a fireman character that will actually fight the fires in the house, and for this, I had to come up with some very basic concepts, in  less detailed pixel art.

This is what I have produced for this:

front view of fireman

side view of fireman

  In order to create this, I have done some research into Devon and Somerset Fire rescue service uniform,  so I can reproduce as accurately as possible the badge and colour scheme.
