Slime Rancher 2 Paintovers

Monomi Park will always remain a place of warmth I will remember fondly. Getting to fly with this highly caring crew and support its very small but incredibly talented art team will always feel like an unearned privilege. Trying to add to the already incredible work of the Slime Rancher 2 team was always a joyful experience, and I believe the quality of the characters of the game's creators is well reflected in the most inviting game world I had ever had the fortune to experience. Playtests never failed to make me happy and hopeful. I also learned to take better care of myself while trying to help the company's leadership care for the amazing team members, and in many ways I feel rescued by Nick and the rest of the studio at a time where I really needed it but didn't know until later.

All works here are a result of teamwork, the combined power of all departments. Special shout-out to art and design folks directly responsible for major parts of these levels I got to support:
