You are a Mind Diver, an investigator who restores memories by diving into minds. Your client is a woman who needs help remembering a fateful party to find her missing boyfriend. Explore an ocean of memories and solve the mystery of a broken heart.

Mind Diver is a romantic detective puzzle game game. The project took place at Den Danske Filmskole, developed by a collaborative group, Indoor Sunglasses. My research question while joining this project was about the achieving a cohesive art direction for a video game and making sure it is reflected through out its production phases. I joined as UI / 2D concept artist and later switched to the position of art director. I created the art bible, constructed the visual direction while creating original key art, concept art, color script, UI interface and marketing material for the game.

Juryen sagde: "...The game is touching, nerve-wracking and a visual experience beyond the ordinary. Mind Diver is an artistically ambitious game that originally utilizes game technologies, 3D scans of locations, visions of an inner world and themes such as loss and memory. Alex is a skilled, diligent, curios designer, who naturally knows how to be a part of and contribute to the collaboration a game production always is."
