created Loot'enkhamun, an Egyptian-themed slot machine, by designing the interface and symbols in Illustrator, focusing on bold, intricate artwork that captures the essence of ancient Egypt. After finalizing the designs, I used Animate for coloring and adding depth to the elements, bringing the vibrant golds, blues, and reds to life. The combination of Illustrator's precision and Animate's coloring capabilities helped create a visually striking, immersive experience for the game.
