Venture

Field lab was looking for an innovative way to help Care Organization Philadelphia to give their clients a better way of life and help the care givers balance all of them. Their clients have multiple disabilities and a physically and mentally limited way of life. So I collaborated with a team to help them come up with ideas.

We wanted to transport them into nature seeing as they are inside most of the time. They can’t see or do much but they do enjoy changing color, light and sounds. So we decided on a polystyle for the aesthetic since it is simplified and can be given simple changes of shades and color. Ideally the game would have changing seasons and colors.

We named it Venture because its a simplified version of adventure which represents how the game simply and slowly helps you feel like you are venturing into its world even if it is just a world of changing light and color. I chose green because it reminds me of nature and purple for the layered screen illustration because it is somewhat mysterious and not as natural of a color. The hummingbird represents freedom and optimism which are qualities we want to give to to the players. And the letters are rounded to contrast the sharp triangular polystyle.
