AWAÑENE, LOST DECADES: BRAZILIAN HISTORY FOR DIGITAL GAMES TOLD THROUGH CONCEPT ART

Abstract

This article aims to explore Brazilian history and culture and present notable characters in the construction of the country for a digital game, addressing the Itapuã War (1555), one of the first conflicts between natives and settlers. Through studies carried out on historicity, especially on the birth of the city of Salvador. The use of graphic design and concept art makes the subject more attractive to the target audience, and an artbook was developed that tells this part of history through images and narratives. To this end, this work comes from qualitative and inductive research, seeking to understand the phenomena on the subject addressed and the role through bibliographic research on the topics covered, and a collection of data with the target audience to better understand it.
