Painted Lady

Painted Lady is a 3D platformer video game, with visuals inspired by watercolor painting and a core mechanic of gliding. Violet was the solo developer of the project, producing all art and code. The player plays as Dani, a girl who has inherited her grandmother's mechanical wings and retraces the steps of her coming of age journey. She explores an island's coast, forest, and mountain searching for fairies that deliver advice. It was inspired by Violet's experiences hiking alone and the ways being alone in nature can provoke a variety of emotional responses.
