Goal
To create a graphic that emblazoned history, technological revolution, and culture in the gaming industry.
Inspiration + Process
The first design iteration featured an abstract holographic background image, Tilt Five logo, and a gameplay image.
The back design featured a holographic and vector image background with content and gameplay images displayed.
The second design iteration featured the Tilt Five logo, a gameplay image, and a vector illustrated timeline.
The back design featured a vector illustrated timeline in the background, scattered hexagons, and content and gameplay images displayed.
After deliberation, the design objective was focused to create a history of games depicted on a path or road that wraps around the box. Depictions would be the earliest games all the way to board games, arcade games, console games, virtual reality, and holograms in full vector illustration.
