I had the great luck and privilege of interning on Hearthstone over the last 6 months!
Coins are a simple 1 mana buff cosmetic, just having the job of looking pretty and reflecting the card art of the individual coin. The "Chain coin" was my very first task, giving me a chance to get acquainted with the engine, while the two Reign of The Black Empire set coins were a quick assignment in-between bigger tasks later on. They served as a delightful reflection of how far I've come in terms of speed and quality of my work. And it was a great pleasure to go back for these recordings and see what audio ended up being created based on my VFX, haha.
A special shout-out to James Jaimes (my mentor) and Thomas Horwath (my manager) for their guidance and support.
