The Extreme Hugtime Simulation Challenge Team

Sarah Ellen Cheney - Character Designer. Sarah, who goes by the online monacher "Star," is an award-winning digital artist specializing in Japanese anime and manga styles. She never leaves home without her iPod, a sketchbook, and a novel.

Heriberto Valle - Concept Artist. Specializing mostly in anime art, Heriberto's understanding of color theory made him a perfect choice to design the environments for our game.

Christopher Wood - Character Modeler. Christopher is a graduate of The Guildhall at SMU, and will be adding another dimension (get it?) to Sarah's artwork. He also appears to have an affinity for cute robots, but honestly, who doesn't?

Ryan Berkani - Environmental Modeler. Ryan is a self-taught modeler, and already has two independent games under his belt. His most recent is Spectraball, which is available on Steam.
