Storm Boy: The Game (2018)
Game Director and Designer
I led the development and direction of this game, based on Colin Thiele’s well known novella of the same name. The game was developed part-time over six months, requiring a tight game design and vision. Aside from the game’s direction, design, writing, and vision, I also managed the promotional materials including trailers and physical merchandise.
