La Tomatina festival held in the Valencian town of Buol, in the east of Spain, in which participants throw tomatoes and engage in a tomato fight solely for entertainment. The assignment brief was to make a character for a game that would be based on a festival and I think La Tomatina lends itself to a game rather well. If we were to apply the theory that rounded shapes are more cute appealing, I would say that the shape of a tomato would make people think my character is approachable and friendly, that’s until they get to know her personality.
