A chaotic 4v4 pirate party game about loading cannons, fixing your ship and pushing friends overboard.

The game

OverBoard is a chaotic 4v4 pirate party game. Players load cannonballs, rush to repair their sinking ship, and sometimes shove their friends into the ocean by accident. You can even jump onto the enemy ship just to mess up their plans. It is fast, loud and silly on purpose.

My role

I was co-producer and artist on a 5-person team.

  • Designed and modeled the pirate characters
  • Modeled the ships, cannons, crates, deck and other props
  • Helped set the game's look so the action stays easy to read
  • Co-produced: planned the schedule, scope and team communication
