Retro Sci-Fi UI & HUD

For this project I teamed up with level design student Robin Jansson. He was making a FPX game inspired by Ridley Scott's Aliens franchise in Unreal Engine 4 and was in need of some UI. In the game the player has a sonar scan ability to help them traverse the levels. I designed the inside of the helmet with a small screen that swapped between shaders to visualize a 'ready' and 'cooldown' state of the scan ability. I also designed the menus that mostly consist of shaders with short simple flipbook animation sequences combined with panning emissive textures.

The helmet was made in Maya and textured in Substance Painter and the menu animations were hand made in Photoshop.
