Escape The Backrooms
Make Way is a chaotic, top-down multiplayer party racer developed by Ice BEAM and published by Secret Mode. Inspired by Micro Machines and Ultimate Chicken Horse, players race to the finish while building the track from unpredictable pieces.
This was my first project at Secret Mode after joining in 2026 and my first racing title - a big shift from my previous work while at Rebellion. It was a great opportunity to explore a new genre while contributing by creating marketing screenshots and video content.

Roles: Audio Mixing
For this project, the original audio mix wasn’t fully capturing the game’s quirky style and horror tone. I created a new mix that completely changed the feel of the trailer and helped tie everything together. I was incredibly proud to see that was my mix chosen for the final released trailer.

Key Art Redesign
For this project, I was asked to use Unreal Engine to create base images for another artist to paint over. Using provided reference images, I closely matched the framing and composition while adjusting the environment, lighting, and overall mood to capture the game’s style and atmosphere. The final images helped establish the tone and direction for the updated key art.
