Select the right art style and the right music
The selection of the right art style was very important for Devfrog because it contributed to making the world of Frog island Feel warm and inviting. When it comes to video game development, it is crucial to set the right style. A sweet and cozy game requires a sweet and cozy design, and his pictures make a big contribution to the provision of this design. Devfrog worked hard to create a detailed hand -drawn world:
“It was a big breakthrough to nail the art style. I tried early on to compensate for the hand -drawn aesthetics with my own technical limits of art and game development. When I finally found the right balance, it felt like the game was really brought to life. Even today I improve my artificial abilities and my art style.
The general inspiration for the game came from Neko Atsume, Animal CrossingAnd Tsuki Odyssey, And the developer's love for these titles can clearly be seen in the entire style and the music selection of the game. The selection of the right music was also something that Devfrog wanted to do right. As Devfrog explained,
“I think music is one of the most important aspects of a game. It can really reinforce the feelings and emotions ten times, which I wanted to convey through the music in Frog Island. I hope that the use of instruments such as soft padded piano and a natural atmosphere enable the players to dive completely in the game.”
The combination of the hand-drawn art style and the calming music helps to create an immersive gameplay experience that is relaxing and very cozy.
