About
Art meets
interaction.
I’m Kangcheng Yuan, a Game and Interactive Media Design student with an EART concentration at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
My practice combines 3D modeling, real-time visual effects, and game design. I’m interested in how an image becomes useful feedback: an attack reads clearly, a space invites exploration, or a player understands what to do next.
Through collaborative game projects, I have contributed environmental assets, combat effects, card mechanics, and Simplified Chinese localization. Playtesting helps me connect those contributions to the experience of the people using them.
