Myst (2020/2021)
Miscellaneous Myst Work (Myst 2020/2021)
This collection showcases a variety of contributions I made to the 2020/2021 remake of Myst. While I may not have been responsible for the entirety of these environments, these specific pieces represent moments where my work played a key role in enhancing the visual storytelling and gameplay experience.
Many of these assets serve as focal points within their respective scenes, acting as hero props or prominent features that draw the player's attention. Their integration was essential to both the narrative and puzzle-solving elements of the game, supporting player immersion and enriching the overall atmosphere. I collaborated closely with other artists and designers to ensure these elements seamlessly fit within the world of Myst.
My contributions in these areas reflect my adaptability and dedication to creating high-quality assets that elevate the player experience. From detailed prop work to enhancing key environmental storytelling moments, I am proud to have left my mark on these memorable spaces within Myst.
Stoneship's chest buoy re design.
In the original this was just a chest on the ground, but this had to be re designed with VR in mind to keep the interactable portions in a good spot. The results is a vaguely steam punk barrel platform.
Achenar's Cartography desk. In the original this was a dresser, but this had to be re designed for VR. I created new version of each map, and added tools.
Stoneship Linking Book Desk in the 'hidden' position.
Stoneship Linking Book Desk in the 'unlocked' position. For this I had to come up with a less magical and more grounded mechanism of hiding and presenting the book.

Myst Toy Boat. A throwback to the original Myst's ship shape.
Myst Island's Library Mantle.
Library Mantle closer up.
This needed a re design for VR considerations, the result a beautiful mantle that you lift up.
