Candle Project

Concept Art and Design for Candle – a Canceled Puzzle Platformer Project

I created concept art and design work for Candle, a stylized puzzle platformer centered around a sentient candle and a flame-shaped butterfly — the candle’s living flame and life source. The two characters could merge or separate depending on the puzzle mechanics, creating unique gameplay dynamics tied to their bond.
The game was structured around seven distinct phases, each with its own visual identity and atmosphere. I was responsible for designing the environments, props, and characters — including the candle and the butterfly — with an emphasis on capturing a spiritual, celestial aesthetic that reflected the emotional tone of the journey.
Though the project was ultimately canceled, Candle remains one of my most creatively ambitious works, combining narrative symbolism with imaginative worldbuilding and visual storytelling.
