For the Squirrel merge game, we had to create 2D stylized and cute squirrel characters for our game. I was in charge for consistent art style and helping teammates follow steps in the pipeline such as inking (outlining), coloring and shading.
Compiled levels:

Rough drafts of squirrels in different colors and basic attire.
And different coat patterns and eye styles for more variety
As the levels increases the idea was to add more accessories and maybe small props

Nearing the maximum level, we wanted the props to be more visible and to possible include a pose that stood out alongside these assets.
