Cooking Market

The Cooking Market project is an intriguing blend of farming and kitchen simulation games, where players grow ingredients on a farm and then use them to prepare and serve food to customers. This dual gameplay requires diverse design elements, combining both agricultural and culinary aspects.

Project Process:

1. Concept and Initial Design:

• The project started with designing characters representing restaurant customers.
• We were responsible for creating and animating these characters in 2D, capturing different emotions and actions.

1. Farming Simulation:

• Players can raise animals and grow plants, similar to traditional farming games.
• We designed various farm elements, including animals and vehicles, ensuring each was unique and animated for realism.

1. Kitchen Simulation:

• The kitchen aspect involves preparing and serving food to customers.
• We designed tables, food items, and other culinary elements, with initial sketches approved by the client before full-color designs and finalization.

1. Integration and Animation:

• The project involved creating a seamless experience where farm-produced ingredients are used in the kitchen.
• Animation was a significant focus, with different artists working on object animations, character animations, and environment design.

Design Highlights:

• Character Design: We led the design and animation of 2D characters, ensuring they were expressive and engaging.
• Farm and Kitchen Elements: We created detailed and animated designs for animals, plants, vehicles, tables, and food items.
• Client Collaboration: The process was iterative, involving close collaboration with the client. We provided multiple sketches and designs for approval before final implementation.

Project Achievements:

• Successfully combined elements of farming and kitchen simulation into a cohesive and engaging game experience.
• Delivered high-quality 2D animations for characters and objects, enhancing the visual appeal and interactivity of the game.
• Maintained a collaborative workflow with the client, ensuring their vision was accurately represented in the final product.

The Cooking Market project stands out for its innovative combination of gameplay elements, detailed design work, and successful execution of both static and animated components.
