ABOUT
Hi there! My name is Isa Déu. I am originally from a hidden-away country between France and Spain called Andorra. I currently work from New York, where I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Game Design from New York University.
I have applied my skillset as a designer and artist working freelance as well as for established studios and companies such as Studio Drydock for their title Wylde Flowers, and Jack Morton, where I helped create a variety of integrated games projects for clients such as Riot Games, Coors, and major entertainment companies.
I have always loved animation, which in high school led me down a rabbit hole into 2D games, and consequently, retro pixel RPGs, whose aesthetics still call to me to this day. I am a collector of cute, creepy-cute, and beautiful things, leading those who know me to end their game recommendations with a simple “… and it’s very pretty”. Striking colors and unique art styles will always get me to try a game.
While I think it is important to push oneself and work on diverse projects, I will always have a soft spot for cozy games that imbue the player with a sense of accomplishment and a desire to do good outside the world of games. For me, some of these games are Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom, Stardew Valley, and Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy. Other games that I love are Gris, River City Girls, and Beglitched.
