Project Description
MultiVersus is a platform fighter with a wide array of Warner Bros IP with characters such as Batman, Shaggy, and Bugs Bunny. You can view a wide selection of UI from the game, almost all of which I have created/implemented or had a hand in creating/implementing with coworkers. Anything non gameplay UI implementation I was responsible for which included the frontend, match end, rewards, transition animations, character progression screens, and battlepass. Many of my core UI material functions were used in the gameplay UI and I was also responsible for character lighting (frontend and match end), pose system, and animation tooling for emotes.
