Project Role: Design Lead

In spring 2020, I designed this game with 6 others and had the role of design lead. During this project, I practiced and developed the following skills:

  • Developed the initial concept of this game, drawing influences from Pong and Pinball

  • Illustrated the game’s concept art, including characters, environment, and color palettes

  • Created all visual assets within the game

  • Oversaw the work of two other designers who worked on level design and sound design

  • Collaborated with 4 programmers who worked on implementation, the creation of our level editor, among other programming tasks.

  • Learned to collaborate and manage remotely, as our project meetings and communications transitioned online due to the pandemic.
