Designer Notes 88: Caroline Marchal - Part 2
Soren Johnson posted a topic in Designer Notes Episodes
Designer Notes 88: Caroline Marchal - Part 2 In this episode, Soren interviews veteran game designer Caroline Marchal, best known for her work on Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, and As Dusk Falls. They discuss how much a narrative game should acknowledge that it is a game, if a 50/50 player split for a binary choice is desirable, and whether you are in the shower or under the shower. This episode was recorded on September 6, 2024. Games discussed: Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, As Dusk Fall, Old World, the Sorcery! series Listen on the Episode Page Listen on Soundcloud Listen in iTunes -
Very experimental album. He's got great videos on how he made each song. I guarantee the techniques are a lot weirder than you would think.

Most of my creature designs rely on reference, even when I’m aiming for something completely original or fantastical. Using references helps me channel a specific mood, energy, or vibe into the creature, almost like casting the right actor for a role. It’s kind of a cheat code, one that helps make the creature more believable and avoids the trap of creating an “inside joke” only I would get. In these sci-fi designs, I pulled from insects, my own biases, and natural elements to form the biology of something alien. - Find more behind-the-scenes shots, free insights, and tutorials here: https://www.menogcreative.com/creature-design -

Many of my character concept art pieces include assets that I've rarely showcased individually. With my sci-fi character designs, most of them feature a robotic implant of some sort. Arms like these start from a free base mesh, a normal human arm, which I then sculpt on top by re-skinning it as hard-surface, and converting all the human joints, fingers, and bending parts into screws, pistons, and ball joints. Essentially, I re-imagine the human body as a machine. Find more behind-the-scenes shots and tutorials here: www.menogcreative.com/scifi-props -
