We had the chance to create an early concept for the upcoming release of Through the Desert. Our goal was to find a font that matched the style but added a fresh modern touch to the game. We gave the logo a tarnished gold effect which really helps the design stand out against the dark blue starry sky background.
The most fun part was designing the Meeples. The game has many camels and many colors, so we created a symbol for each faction and developed a color scheme that was more vibrant but inspired by the original versions of the game, making it look modern.
This project funded on Kickstarter in the fall of 2023.
The first step in most projects is to create a complete 3D version of your game. This allows you to give your backers a sense of scope of your project in a single shot, as well as provide realistic looking elements throughout your Kickstarter page. 3D renders of your game can also be useful in your rulebook as well, allowing you to provide realistic looking examples and rule explanations.
