Concept Art created for Board Gamelandia on the Meta Horizon Worlds platform!

I had an amazing opportunity to work with an excellent team for creating a translation of board games into a virtual reality environment!

The challenge was to create the concept that embodied the soul and idea of playing these games in Virtual Reality. Through drawing explorations, explored a few different directions before arriving at the idea of mixing scales and atmospheric elements to suggest that the player is "Teeny Tiny" in the world of Board Gamelandia. Specifically this set of concepts is for the Hub location of the worlds.

Board Gamelandia is Developed by Nerd Ninjas in partnership with The Op for the Horizon Worlds Platform by Meta. ‘Tapple’ and ‘Hues and Cues’ are created and owned by The Op.

As a team member, I was responsible for the Concept Art shown here. Art Direction by Cara Jones.
