Hi, I'm Leith! I'm Protostar Games lead 3d artist, with over 6 years of mobile industry experience as well as two times AGDA (Australian Game Develop's Award) nominee ('It's Literally Just Mowing' and 'Dream Hopper'). I specialize in creating vibrant scenes and adorable characters with a focus on hand-painted textures. Additionally, I have several years of experience as a digital illustrator and creative across a variety of mediums, including narrative writing and marketing design.Check out my work on two of Protostar Game's flagship mobile titles; 'It's Literally Just Mowing,' (https://t.ly/28BPF) and 'Mowing Mazes,' (https://t.ly/IB8A2) the spin-off arcade puzzle sequel, where:➼ My skills as lead (and sole) 3d artist built a cheerfully successful game from the ground up. As lead artist on 'Just Mowing,' I was responsible for all style direction, concepting, modeling, texturing, rigging and animation of hundreds of different assets - environment (countless!), character (endless costume choices!) vehicle (over 250 different swappable vehicle part models), creature (100 different critters, from rare butterflies to Shetland horses), prop, I did them all! ➼ As an experienced Unity developer, I took my skills and assets to the next level, implementing and designing dynamic and vibrant level designs, particle effects, and visual wizardry to turn 'It's Literally Just Mowing' from a simple game about, well, literally just mowing, to a beloved meditative staple in people's lives.➼ And then I did it all again in Mowing Mazes, taking my environment assets and style and incorporating it into a new genre, which includes a whole new wealth of diverse character customization!I've been playing and making games since I could figure out how to hold a pencil and press buttons, and they've defined my life ever since I firmly decided I would become a game developer at 10 years old. I'm an intensely passionate and joyful developer, who takes pride in the worlds I help create both on screen and in the real meat world! I consider interpersonal skills as fundamentally important as artistic and technical, and I love creating lasting positive spaces around me with fellow visionaries. I've been working as lead artist at Protostar with an independence that allowed me near total control of the art and design of my flagship games, but I work fantastic in a teams as well.I am additionally passionate about LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent game development, and diverse representation in games and media.For inquiries, please contact me at:leithraddatz@gmail.com
