This week has been huge for our team at Umeshu Lovers, as we've just released Graine, our first self-published mobile game!
Graine was born out of an idea from my colleague Arnaud back when he was teaching game design. While he and the dev team were laying the foundations of Graine's game design, the art team and I worked on the art style.
Graine's main concept was that it was a platformer game anchored in nature, greenery and plant life. The main goal for the team was to create a set of biomes that all feel and look different, while keeping that cozy, hearthwarming atmosphere.
The little seed also has many different variations, but the main one, that simple red/pink smiling face quickly became a favorite among the team, and is currently widely used in our internal discussions on Slack as an emoji.
Graine is available now on Apple Store : https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/graine/id6739204232
