So here's a twitter thread about the study I made some art for last year! Maddy was researching children and adolesents' methods of data gathering and taking on advice for her PhD. As part of that, she made a little game in which kids would count or guesstimate how many of each type of alien was on a little planet, and rate their confidence in that decision, every now and then getting advice from a little cosmonaut or on a screen. I was commissioned to make the assets for that! The tricky part was designing a large number of colour schemes that even children who potentially had colour blindness could pick out.

Some UI mockups for Fis Cafe. Slowly working in the blueprint systems for them in Unreal Engine
