​​

Overview

Neon Knights is a high-fidelity third-person cyberpunk horror with puzzle-like gunplay and boss battles. Set in a Fimbul Winter–infused Copenhagen, you play Nik Jacobsen—a digital exorcist voiced and acted by Lars Mikkelsen—who must navigate a city that blurs the line between code and soul.
 

What I did

• Shaped the vision: Crafted the core design statement, pillars, and narrative tone to steer the game’s haunting and immersive identity.

• Documented the fun: Wrote the design documentation and defined feature ownership, bolstering both creativity and development clarity.

• Co-wrote the blueprint: Collaborated with the Creative Director to evolve features and gameplay, balancing chills with challenge.

• Managed the design backlog, prioritized tasks, and introduced Notion-based practices that helped the team stay on track—yet still surprised.
