An early camera & animation test of the first 3D character model we made -- Pearl! Despite using 3D models, it was important to us for the chars to still closely resemble the stylized 2D looks we were so used to over the years (though with some updates and polish in each game!)

Each character's 3D rig included controls to help manipulate various elements and maintain more 2D-esque silhouettes and poses. Pearl's lovely nose, for example, gets rotated on her face to ensure it never directly points at the camera.

Once we bring the char models into the game, we partially flatten and rotate them to always face the camera. Our goal with UTL was to 'fuse' the first two games together, and that required some trickery to get these stylized 3D models to work nicely with an ATL-like perspective.

Here's an early/unused

We were quite fond of Peridot's builder moveset from STL, but still wanted to challenge ourselves to design a brand new moveset in UTL. Enter: ..Robonoids! At one point Peri could access 'noid upgrade trees mid-battle and transform them into different types (healer, SP gen, etc)

greenlit, one of the first words out of our mouths was "LAPIS!"
@Grumpyface
why didn't you release lapis lazuli as a dlc playable character for save the light? if you re-release the game, please have an update for it that has lapis playable.
