Miau Studios
What started as a school project for a big chunk of my grade became something real. My friend Joana Soares and I ended up actually creating an indie game dev studio together. This is one of my dearest projects because it tested both my patience and design skills — I had to create an entire game alongside the brand identity.
The Challenge
Create a skate-inspired design that felt clean and unique — something that stood out from the typical indie game aesthetics you see everywhere. It needed to be distinctive while remaining professional.
The Solution
Built a visual identity around skate culture aesthetics but refined: bold rounded typography, hard black linework for edge, and playful candy colors that feel fun without being childish. Every design choice had to work for both the studio brand and the actual game.
Results
The project earned top marks and successfully launched Miau Studios as a real indie game development company. The brand identity captured our vision of clean, unique game design with skate-inspired aesthetics.
