Teaser animado 2D de un trading card game digital “Warzai”.

Abstract

Within the early stages of video game development, the use of 2D animation can serve as a valuable support tool for presenting new concepts. Its purpose is not limited solely to promotion, but can also be integrated as a visual resource that accompanies the conceptual design process. This allows for early exposure of the project, where specific feedback can be received prior to the creation of the Game Design Document. In addition, it enables the preliminary representation of essential elements such as visual aesthetics, sound design, and basic gameplay mechanics. With this objective in mind, this project proposes the creation of an animated teaser trailer, primarily in 2D, as a visual resource for the video game proposal Warzai, a digital trading card game intended for development on mobile devices. At the same time, it seeks to offer a preliminary view of the artistic, narrative, and gameplay style of the project, in order to become a friendly and complementary tool to the Game Design Document, for presentation to potential collaborators, interested communities, or investors. Through this format, the goal is to clearly present the aesthetic and conceptual foundations of the video game at an early stage of its production.
