VainGlory: Halcyon Fold

The Halcyon Fold is the first 3v3 map created for VainGlory, the MOBA perfected for touch

Working at a startup means wearing many hats, and Super Evil Megacorp was no exception. Being there at the inception, I had a hand in guiding the aesthetic style of the environment.

Vainglory was developed for the mobile device platform, where players would be in direct contact with their screens, tapping and sliding to control their characters. We sought to evoke this tactile experience with the aesthetic, and so leaned into a textural quality, rich hues, and vibrant lighting. We set ourselves apart with a textural quality and moody lighting. The dark ground and deep shadows provided the backdrop for vibrant characters and VFX.
