The Walking Dead — Skybound
Project Role: Art Direction and Graphic Design. Game Board Artist.
Balancing atmosphere with clarity was essential. The design needed to feel apocalyptic without sacrificing usability.
For this project with Z-Man Games, I immersed myself in the visual language of the comics that defined The Walking Dead at the time. The goal was to translate that world into a tabletop experience that felt authentic and emotionally grounded.
I focused on placing players directly into an apocalyptic setting where they were responsible for difficult decisions involving survival, scarcity, defense, and progression through a zombie-infested landscape. This required making strong thematic choices while maintaining clarity and legibility. Striking that balance between atmosphere and usability is a skill I bring to every project.
