Zone Zero is a free roam virtual reality shooter game. It has been developed with Vodafone as technological partner and lead investor during the 2020 edition of “Action for 5G”, a contest that funds startups using 5G in innovative ways. The network allows to link multiple VR headsets and high-quality graphics games to be played in the same space. This solution made it from 300+ competitors to the final 4.

As art director for the startup my role has been to come up with a name, a visual identity and to lead the creative team through the various stages of the game development.

The premise of the game is a space colonisation campaign gone wrong. As planet Earth became uninhabitable, humans launched Zone Zero: a series of settlements on new planets. But hope isn't the only thing that humans brought with them from Earth: greed and warfare rule as crews battle to gain control of Zone Zero.
