WE RECENTLY STEPPED INTO THE WORLD OF GAME DESIGN, OR SHOULD WE SAY, 'STEPPED INTO THE RING'. LUCHA LOCOS IS A MEXICAN WRESTLING ONLINE GAME BUILT FOR THE FACEBOOK PLATFORM, ALLOWING EVERYONE TO PULL ON THEIR TIGHTS AND BE THE LUCHADOR THEY'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE (AHEM)!

OUR APPROACH WAS BOLD AND LO-FI - THE WRESTLER CHARACTERS ARE STYLED AS ROUGH, DOTTY CUTOUTS, WITH BIG, GRAPPLING HANDS AND OVERSIZED HEADS/MASKS.  THE COLOURS ARE BRIGHT AND GARISH, COUNTERED WITH A PAPERY BACKGROUND PALETTE. TYPOGRAPHY IS INSPIRED BY CLASSIC BOXING POSTERS WTH FLASHING LIGHT BULBS FRAMING IT ALL.
