About the Game
The Cocoknight follows the story of a young hero as they land on the hidden shores of Coconut Island. Dark clouds loom over the once-paradise as the coconut denizens have gone missing. Tasked by the spirit of the last Cocoknight, the player must free the captured coconuts to restore the island to its former glory.
"Go forth, protect, do what’s right. Within you lies the spirit of a true Cocoknight."
The Cocoknight is a top-down action-RPG wherein the player explores a magical island to find and rescue captured coconut friends and return them to their homeland. Along their way, they must complete simple, location-based challenges and fight different types of enemies. The location is a lush jungle island setting with vibrant saturation and a lo-poly style. The entire playthrough is less than 30 minutes.
The art in The Cocoknight captures its whimsical essence. Lead Artist Lillian says, "For the artwork, I followed Mika’s lead! She had made a really comprehensive list of inspirations she wanted to draw from when designing the game. Mika and I seem to like a lot of the same art styles so it was a good fit. I like to use bright colors and simple shapes, and tried to give all the characters a distinct look."
Mika's clear vision set the tone for the aesthetics of the project and we were able to have a lot of fun breathing life into her concepts.
