I submitted couple of my projects to Adobe Design Achievement Awards a month ago. I found out that all my projects; Cinema Flash, Sociable Table, and Eco Hero had become Semi Finalists fot the Photography, Non-Browser, and Browser category! Woo Hoo!!

Many of my colleagues from RIT were in the Semi-Finalists too. Go RIT!

Eco Hero – Save the Broken Planet - was featured on the FWA! Although we didn’t win the award, it’s definitely nice to be recognized by one of the most traffic heavy sites, after all the hard work & time put into the project : )

Here are the final comps of Eco Hero:

Once you finish the game, the planet will transform to its clean version:

I also made backgrounds for all the games:

This is for the a Shooting Game “Tree Trouble”.

Puzzle Game “Off Switch”.

Fighting Game “The Last Count Down”.

To start, my Dynamic Persuasion Design class assigned us to make an interactive website. Mike Roushey, Jared Domonell and I decided to team up, and tackle this challenge together.

Eco Hero is an interactive adventure game. The game will feature a story about an alien living on a fictional planet in poor ecological health. This alien, controlled by the user, will become the hero of the story, fixing the separate issues and eventually saving the planet and rescuing his girlfriend in distress.

Each section of the player’s environment will take on the form of a different mini-game that focuses on a specific issue facing the planet. Through the games, the player can collect ‘eco gems’ & eco robot parts, that will eventually prepare them to fight the evil monster that has invaded the planet.

I am the art director, and the project manager of the team. Jared is our main shell developer, who will also be making two games. Mike is our character designer, and game developer. I made the two posters of the polluted & clean version of Eco Planet, where the story of Eco Hero will be taking place!
