Animated Anomalies.

Conduit is a student-made 3D action-adventure game developed over a four-month semester. Players explore an alien tundra, investigate ruins, and fight mechanical and organic enemies.

I worked on the project’s art team, contributing combat effects and environmental props while also supporting the Simplified Chinese version and playtesting in Mainland China.

Character attack effects I created visual effects for character attacks, contributing to the moment-to-moment presentation of combat.

Hit effects I made effects associated with characters being hit. My work covered both the action and its immediate visual response.

Environmental props I modeled 3D objects for the game’s environments as part of the team’s shared asset production.

Conduit brought my effects work and 3D modeling into one playable team project. It also gave me a reason to think about the relationship between individual assets and the wider game experience.

Simplified Chinese localization

I translated game text from English into Simplified Chinese. The Steam page lists Simplified Chinese interface support in the released game.

Playtesting and outreach

I helped organize playtests and promotional activities for players in Mainland China, extending my contribution beyond asset production.

Conduit was created as an RPI Games and Simulation Arts and Sciences capstone project. My role was part of the art team, alongside contributors working across design, programming, art, and audio.
