Rayman 2 HD is a ground-up remake of Rayman 2: The Great Escape, developed by a team of dedicated volunteers on the powerful Unreal Engine 4. The game is planned to release on Windows and Linux for now.

I joined the team on February of 2023 as a 3D artist, and have been working on this project ever since.

I have been responsible for creating a plethora of stylized environmental assets ranging from machinery, props & architecture of the nefarious Robot-Pirates, to rocks, trees, plants, flowers and mushrooms, as well as a multitude of PBR materials created in substance designer, working closely with not only our talented concept artists whom provided beautiful re-imaginings of many elements from the original game, but also hand in hand with our Lead Modeller and our Art Director.

Working on this project has been a wonderful experience so far. The entire team is extremely talented and highly dedicated to bring this project to life, and we handle our work in the most professional way possible. As part of the 3D Art department, we have achieved a visual style that elevates it to moder graphics, utilizing the PBR pipeline and optimizing the polygon count, UV layouts and texture sets.

Being a remote team, we communicate via a private Discord server, having regular meetings to keep the project's vision and tasks on the right track. We use Trello to organize our tasks, as well as internal documents and excel files for each department's tasks.

Despite being distinct departments, we still provide feedback to other departments such as the programming, music and art teams to ensure the best possible results.
