King – Character creation

Since I joined Candy Crush Saga as a game artist in 2015 I’ve created some different characters that used to be presented in our different episodes on the game map. I’ve also made different outfits and new poses for already existing characters, such as the main character ”Tiffi”, who I’ve turned into everything from a serious police officer to a shiny TV-show hostess.

I created ”Princess Rapunzel” who is the main character in the episode called ”Teapot tower”. Tiffi helps the princess by giving her an enchanted comb so she can untangle her messy marshmallow hair. I wanted this character to have royal attributes, like a fancy dress and shiny shoes, without loosing the wonky and goofy feeling that is an important part of our game art.

I also created a crab named ”Ceasar”, who lives in a brulee house on the shore, featured in the episode called ”Brulee Bay”. Tiffi helps the crab to fix an outfit so he can join the beach party tonight. I wanted to create a character that fitted nicely in a sunset beach episode, and a dancing crab with maraccas felt like the right choice for this.

Peggy the penguin works as a seller in an ice-cream stand in the arctic plains, in the episode called ”Siberian Sorbet”. This was the first character I made for Candy Crush Saga back in 2015.

In the episode ”Wonky wonderland” Tiffi visits a rabbit that I made with a lot of inspiration from ”Alice in wonderland”. Tiffi helps the rabbit since he is arranging a tea party and has no pastries.
