Dark Angel is an original, fictional game IP entirely conceived and developed by STARNO.net. This passion project was born from a desire to push the boundaries of cinematic storytelling and visual fidelity during the studio’s creative exploration phases. It serves as a comprehensive showcase of our team's talent in character design, atmospheric world-building, and high-end digital matte painting.
The visual development focused on creating a "hyper-realistic fantasy" aesthetic. Every asset, from the intricate feather details of the protagonist's wings to the crumbling urban environments, was crafted using a combination of 3D sculpting, advanced texturing, and digital painting. As an internal project, Dark Angel allows STARNO to experiment with new pipelines and technologies, ensuring our studio remains at the forefront of the gaming industry's artistic demands.
Set in a hauntingly beautiful post-apocalyptic era, the world of Dark Angel is a fractured universe where chaos and terror have become the daily norm. The narrative centers on a mythic creature of immense power: Dark Angel. Part human and part celestial being, she is a towering figure of strength and grace who descends into the ruins of civilization to restore peace.
The storyline explores themes of redemption and survival, as this winged guardian intervenes in a world on the brink of total annihilation. By blending mythological elements with a gritty, modern survivalist setting, Dark Angel offers a unique visual contrast that defines the STARNO artistic signature—where beauty meets desolation in stunning, hyper-realistic detail.
