Genopets is honored to announce its partnership with Concept Art House to join them in its artistic pursuit of bringing AAA game-quality artwork to Genoverse.

Genopets will provide millions of users with their digital spirit animal to be nurtured, battle-seasoned, and evolved to their liking, and that’s no small work of art.

The process of creating a Genopet begins with an idea; A free flow of 2D organic animal sketches are modeled to create an overall look of what a pet will look like once it’s composed. Creating this structure opens the imagination to the different varieties of spirit animals that any given person could want. Next, they must vectorize the art, meaning we edit the shape language to easily and realistically modify the organic animal sketch to motion towards the cybernetic aesthetic. At this point, they move into an area of drawing that very much analogs architecture; orthogonal sketching, which allows them to draw and see what the Genopet will look like from different angles.

Creating gamified procedurally generated NFTs is a very delicate process that calls for a precise balance of art and science to execute accurately. They are not only merging the technical 3D modeling of Genopets in a modular and procedural system, but we have to build multiple systems of Genopets that capture the beauty of the Genoverse while being emotionally engaging throughout their vast permutations.

A Mr. Potato Head from the Future

They are essentially creating a cybernetic “Mr. Potato Head” system from the future. This system currently consists of a body, head, ears, eyes, horns, manes, tails, wings, antennae, emblems, light lines, and accessories combined to create a nearly infinite amount of unique Genopets. And they have to design everything in a way that is aesthetically pleasing no matter the combination.

“The Genopets team has meticulously created an anatomical design system that allows for a massive range of permutations so that each Genopet can be unique to each player,” said Benjamin Tse, CPO and Co-Founder of Genopets, “Genopets are designed to be completely modular and are procedurally generated and upgraded to evolve as players interact with the game, essentially allowing users to become virtual graphic artists in their own right.”
