Turbo Trials — Teaser Trailer

The problem

A racing game built with my brother needed more than just working gameplay — it needed a concept sharp enough to hook players, real in-game assets to sell that concept, and a trailer and marketing push to get it in front of anyone at all.

The approach

Contributed to the game's concept and ideas, built assets used in-game, then took ownership of the trailer — cutting a teaser that sells the core hook fast: four distinct environments, unique hazards per stage, and a hard fail-state (hit three TNT crates and the run is over). Followed that with the marketing push to get the teaser and the game seen.

The outcome

A complete teaser trailer and marketing rollout for a finished, playable racing game — concept, in-game assets, and promotion all under one shared effort with my brother.

Design

Concepting a game hook and building assets that reinforce it, then cutting a trailer whose pacing sells the tension of the fail-state in seconds.

Technology

Hands-on in-game asset creation for a real, shipped racing game — build work, not just a pitch deck.

Strategy

A game is only as good as whether anyone plays it — took the trailer and marketing seriously as their own deliverable, not an afterthought.
