My main goal with Digital Dash was to make the player feel lightning fast. In effort to hyperbolize the player character's speed, I helped establish the electricity-themed assets (such as VFX and sound effects) and cinematic camera angles we featured. This was part of designing a rapid build-up of speed and intensity in the gameplay that's both responsive and exciting.
It was also important to offer accessibility to players who are unable to run, so I helped design alternative gestures that our motion-tracking cameras could register, such as flapping arms.
