Game design for a final course project

As part of my final project for ATLAS Design Methods, I was part of a team of three to develop a product for a fictional company. We selected Ellumination, a brand positioning itself as a pioneer of eco-friendly engines.

I was responsible for designing and developing an interactive game, as well as creating all visual assets and writing the game’s code.

My Role

Game Designer

Problem & Solution

Sustainability is a complex topic that can be difficult to communicate effectively. Ellumination needed a playful, engaging way to educate audiences about alternative energy sources and promote their brand mission.

Our team revamped Ellumination’s branding and developed:

  • A new logo, color palette, and typography system

  • A playable game that introduces users to the concept of electric-powered transportation in a fun, approachable way

My Role

  • Designed all in-game assets (vehicles, backgrounds, UI)

  • Coded the game in Unity using C#

  • Collaborated with teammates to ensure visual cohesion with our brand guidelines

Game Design and Assets

Below are different examples of game assets. The player controls an electric powered vehicle, with the backdrop of the game taking place in a city setting. The environment colors have an orange-aligned color scheme to keep in line with Ellumination’s brand colors.
