But one day she came across machinery beings devouring the shoots she created. Without understanding why they are doing this, to protect and preserve the legends, Kasoré starts to absorb them into himself, in the crystal on his forehead, as they would be safe there.

Occupation
Game Designer | Project Manager | UX/UI
Kasoré is a course completion project, designed and developed by Leonardo Malavasi and Isabella Guariglia, in partnership with the ICAD / VisionLab Laboratory and the departments of Arts and Design and Informatics at PUC-Rio.
The project brings a view beyond the common sense about Brazilian legends for the young-adult audience, creating a narrative that, united with mechanics, explores in a more faithful way the original legends and deities of Brazil.
This project aims to bring greater visibility to the original Brazilian culture, valuing the beliefs and traditions born from the great cultural miscegenation and the people of the forests.
During the development of this project, I fulfilled the role of Game Designer, giving conception to the mechanics, Level Design and narrative, using Unity Engine, being also responsible for the GDD documentation and team management.
