C-Beams

Disclaimer: C-Beams is still in Development. Many of the presented designs are still a work-in-progress.

C-Beams is a top-down space action RPG where you pilot your ship through a perilous black hole system. Navigate treacherous anomalies, engage in intense ship-to-ship combat, and upgrade your vessel to face ever-greater challenges.

In the future, humanity has begun reaching out into the stars. The discovery of a new black hole system has sparked a gold rush, drawing corporations and daring pilots eager to claim its riches. Those brave enough to face hazardous anomalies and hostile competitors can amass great fortunes by extracting rare, never-before-seen elements.

As a new pilot with nothing to lose, you’ll decide how to carve your legacy in this unforgiving frontier.

My Tasks

I joined the team of C-Beams as a UI/UX Designer, mainly trying to standardize UI components, make them scalable for multiple platforms (especially the Steam Deck) and create a unique identity that fits the game’s setting and style.

Design System

As soon as I talked to the team about their vision for the user interface, that they wanted it to almost feel like the interface in a retro-futuristic (akin to “The Expanse” and “Alien”), I knew that I wanted to create an extensive design system in order to have a unified design language that looks consistent at all times

Another reason I wanted to do this was to help with the implementation of components and make creating new interfaces easier by providing versatile elements that can be reused over and over again.

Some of the components that I have created for C-Beams’ design system, including Font Details, Colors, various modular and responsively scaling components, as well as fully custom Icons (created by me).

Screen Designs

Some of the screens that I have created this far for C-Beams, most of which already use the Design System created by me.
