I Turned My Painting Into a Game

A few years ago, while living in a remote Himalayan village, I painted a forest path lined with prayer flags. Recently, while working on Shepherd's Dream(working title), I found myself returning to that painting. What started as a simple piece of art slowly became the foundation for a place that could be explored, simulated, and experienced. In this video, I share the process of turning that painting into a playable environment — from materials and vegetation to atmosphere, color, and worldbuilding. Shepherd's Dream is an ongoing project inspired by the mountains, shepherds, and landscapes that shaped a memorable chapter of my life.
