Spine animations

Here you'll find some animations I created in Spine, both for Cooking Diary and personal projects

Character customization system & overall animation

I created high-quality, visually engaging animations that defined the look and feel of Cooking Diary. One of my major contributions was designing and developing the game’s character customization system, a key feature allowing players to create unique avatars by customizing everything from skin tone to outfits.

Working closely with our art and dev teams, I built a robust system that now offers over 8,000 personalization elements, including:

  • 1,776 outfits
  • 88 facial feature sets
  • 440 hairstyles

This feature, along with other animation and visual innovations I developed for the project, contributed to Cooking Diary winning the People’s Choice Award (IMGA, 2019) and the People’s Voice Award (Webby Awards, 2020).
