The Tabula Rasa team is collaborating with Electronic Arts and the Positive Play group to develop the project. Electronic Arts requested us to discover and iterate on a concept for a new type of character creation system that focuses on inclusivity and gender inclusivity via different body types that pair with clothing styles, while also considering the character’s personality in simulation games. This project is a client project at the ETC.
We are using Unreal Engine 5 as a way to showcase proof our our ideas, but by the end of our semester, we also plan to have research and documentation of our though processes for Electronic Arts to use as reference in the future.
We hope that our project paves a new way to view character creation systems in video games allow players to feel great amount of freedom in expressing their identities.
