Age of Darkness: Final Stand UI & UX

Here are some of the UI elements I was involved with on Age of Darkness: Final Stand - the dark fantasy survival RTS released on Steam Early Access in October 2021.

I worked on this project as the Mid UI Artist, for production throughout 2021 leading up to the initial release. I was mainly responsible for helping Mark Eastwood, our Senior UI Artist, realise the vision and design for the UI by assisting with building it in Unreal Engine 4. This involved technical implementation and layout within UMG, importing and/or rebuilding GUI assets, and some light material work and animation.

I also assisted with general UX tasks, concepted & designed a number of screens and elements (such as the Difficulty, Hero Select and Settings screens you see here), as well as small asset generation for things like icons.

The whole team involved with this project was incredibly talented, and always gave valued support & feedback - please check out their work as well!
