Snowmentum

Snowmentum is a 2D arcade game about rolling a snowball to destructive sizes and was created to be a part of Bradley University’s arcade cabinet to be sent to the 8-Bit Arcade Bar in Peoria, IL.

Snowmentum was made in the Unity Engine with Brandon Koederitz as the producer. I took on the role of UI/UX Designer, designing the HUD elements, the tutorial, the leaderboard, and a whole text font for the game. I did also take on drawing some of the sprites used for the various obstacles, but my primary function was creating a clear UI for the player.

This was one of my favorite projects I had the chance to work on, and it is available to play right now at the 8-Bit Arcade Bar in Peoria, IL!

In December of 2025, an arcade cabinet with this very game and several others was shipped out to the 8-Bit Arcade and was met with praise and love.
