Hey ! My name's Hayli, or liliovali. I'm a game developer and character designer with 9 years of personal art and gamedev experience. I specialise in my cartoony style and expressive, lively fantasy characters, but I love getting to branch out into pixel art or horror-realism when I get the chance ! (see Closure, Yuu Run, etc.)
Currently I'm working on my own projects as a one-person game studio - I handle everything from concept sketches to modelling and texturing to background music and sound effects and the programming too. My sweet spot and what I love is creating expressive games with inventive mechanics and memorable characters, but I've worked across different genres and styles depending on what the project needs (see Closure).
What makes me different is that I know how to handle every part of the development process. When I say I built something from scratch, I mean everything - the character models, the code, the animations, the sound design, even the music. This gives me a unique perspective on how all the pieces fit together to create something cohesive and polished, and means my skillset is applicable generally to any task.
You can check out my work and get a feel for my creative approach across this site - I've put together a showcase of all of my current and past projects, with lots of content to look at.
