To enhance player engagement, the chicken transitions through comically expressive states—Well, Concerned, and… No Longer with Us—and difficulty is based on chicken nugget “spiciness” levels.

My design work includes branding and crafting original game assets, both of which are achieved using a combination of AI tools and Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop).

This project blends humor and suspense to create an engaging palyer experience.

Infused with the wild chaos of mad science, Mutant Money bursts with eccentric energy and playful absurdity. I crafted this game’s visual identity to be vibrant and quirky, seamlessly blending colorful, cartoon-like aesthetics with polished, functional UI.

From mischievous monsters to bubbling lab experiments, every design choice amplifies the fun, while ensuring an intuitive and engaging player experience.

As with other games on this page, I generated the starting assets using sophisticated prompts, then finessed them to a finished state using Adobe CC and artistic tricks I’ve picked up along the way.

Drawing inspiration from the grit and charm of the Old West, I designed Tumbleweed with a rugged yet playful visual identity. This slot machine game highlights my ability to blend bold, consistenly-stylized aesthetics with functional, intuitive UI.

Utilizing my go-to tools—Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Figma, with AI assistance, I developed a cohesive design language featuring exaggerated Western motifs, intricate paylines, and vibrant reel symbols like revolvers, cowboy hats, and a golden Governor’s seal.

Every element of this slot machine game evokes the nostalgic atmosphere of an Old West boomtown saloon with its spirit of adventure, risk, and reward.

This type of betting game is about as simple as it gets. In its barest form, the player locks in their bet, and watches a number increase. Cash out before the generated number is reached, their bet amount increases by the multiplier: go past the number, and they loose it all. Below are a couple examples of how this simple concept can be made exciting and tailored to different audiences.

Take a baseball-them and wrap it in 16-bit graphics for nostalgic effect, and you’ve got built-in appeal to the 25-40-year-old male audience. Here’s how it works:

The player clicks “Bet,” and the pitch comes screaming in.

The camera follows the ball as soon as it’s struck. As the ball travels higher the ball travels higher, the background goes from stadium, to sky, and finally to out space when the really big numbers are hit.

Congratulations, you cashed out! That goes in the win column. 

But sometimes you don’t get so lucky. I design separate loss graphics for different altitudes to deepen the player experience: and unfortunate bird at lower altitudes, and an unfortunate alien for catastrophes in space.

For this version of the Crash-style game, I chose a felted art style and juxtaposed it with a lunar/space them, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. 

Mashing up the warmth and approachability of soft, tactile felted design elements with a UI reminiscent of a 1970s HP-45 resulted in the striking visual identity and whimsical player experience I was shooting for.

Under the hood, it’s the same game as the one above, but the look and feel is designed to appeal to a broader, more casual audience.

I developed three distinct themes for this Plinko-inspired video game, showcasing my ability to create versatile and engaging designs that capture different atmospheres while delivering creative reskins quickly and effectively. Each theme leverages unique visual assets and brand identity, created using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and AI tools, to engage diverse audiences and elevate the excitement of the classic Plinko gameplay.

A golf-themed version brings a familiar, sporty feel with golf balls bouncing through fairways and sand traps toward rewarding holes.

This backyard garden theme offers a whimsical setting where acorns tumble through leafy obstacles as a friendly squirrel looks on.

Embracing the neon-soaked vibe of the 80s, I designed a vibrant, retro interface for this Drop-style puzzle game. This project demonstrates my ability to channel nostalgic aesthetics into a cohesive game UI that amplifies player immersion and adds layers of excitement.

Working in Figma and Adobe Photoshop, I crafted dynamic visuals that capture the era’s bold patterns, geometric shapes, and neon accents. The falling “Droplets” and stationary “Slots” work together to deliver clear, rewarding gameplay feedback, while animations increase in intensity with each successful chain reaction.

Like, by mixing totally rad 80s vibes with super easy-to-use UI stuff, I made a game interface that’s, like, totally eye-catching and responsive! It, like, totally lets players relive the mega energy of old-school arcade classics in a fresh, tubular way!

Sorry. I couldn’t resist.

For this prehistoric card trader/battler, I embraced a bold, photo-realistic art style to bring these giants to life for a very young demographic. Again, this project became a proving ground to hone my ability to balance theme with clean, intuitive UI.

Combining Figma, Photoshop, and AI, I designed both sides of the highly-detailed  cards to make gameplay strategic and cool.

Earthy tones, dramatic lighting, and realistic textures evoke just the right mood. Blending the ferocity of dinosaurs with polished, modern UI design is just what our young and dinosaur-crazed audience wanted.

For this sweet game concept, I designed a vibrant, quirky setting inspired by storybook art. Using my established toolset, I brought the characters’ playful personalities to life, creating a colorful, high-stakes visual experience.

The LifeMap was a unique hybrid: an emergency simulation web-app with multiplayer functionality of a video game.

I created a UI that offered niche functionality with quick, clear navigation with rich, interactive elements, that allowed users to manipulate 3D models and access intricate details with ease. The end product provided first-responders tactical utility with a lean UI that facilitated rapid decision-making.
