I joined the production for Lost Light in October 2013. A minimalistic-style prototype existed, but I was brought on to create a stronger visual theme. I oversaw all aspects of art and animation.

When developing the game’s guide, we wanted a creature that was playful and expressive, but still had a Disney charm to it. We landed on a Squirrel, lovingly referred to Sum Sum internally (it was a math game after all). The squirrel fit in perfectly into our magical forest, and expressive enough to communicate player feedback.

I set out to make a unique casual game that was more moody and mysterious than what was currently out on the market. I tried to make the forest still appealing, but with a sense of magic. These weren’t your normal forests. Color and shape language played a part in differentiating locations and obstacles.

I wanted to tell a subtle narrative as you travel throughout the worlds of Lost Light. As you progressed, the trees became more angular, and the colors shifts from primarily cool to warmer tones. Even the rocks and small flower details changed shape.
