In the meantime, they were busy making their own in-house game &#8216;Farming Forward&#8217;. As a freelancer, I was gradually getting involved in the early design decisions and helped create assets.<\/p><p>In 2018 I took over the main design role for \u2018Farming Forward\u2019, which gave me the opportunity to design many new features (as a result of a major refactoring of the backend) and create new assets using a new 3D pipeline.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9e81434 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9e81434\"
