About Happy Accidents

Happy Accidents is a VR game created around the 2021 VR Game Jam theme, “Small World”. Happy Accidents is a relaxing yet challenging painting simulated where players control a baby squirrel perched on the great painter, Rob Boss’s, head. Using hair picks to control the arms, players can explore their creative side by painting a beautiful landscape, all the while Rob Boss compliments their work. Art is in the eye of the beholder, and players can move on to their next masterpiece whenever they please.

Happy Accidents won first place in the 2021 VR Game Jam!

Resposibilites

I was in charge of creating all of the 2D assets for this game. Based on the game concept, I needed to create a series of images that emulated Bob Ross’s painting style while still being simplistic enough for players to follow along in a paint-by-numbers style. Below is the series of paintings and outlines I created for this project.
