Back in 2018 I was brought in to help the MapleStory M team as production and publishing efforts ramped up. I supported the launch and ongoing marketing of the game, while also assisting with other titles.

I worked on a wide variety of web and social media marketing materials for in-game updates and live events, both pre- and post-launch. My deep familiarity with the brand quickly made me a valuable contributor during brainstorming and planning sessions.
This was a particularly meaningful project for me—not only because I had the chance to collaborate with some of the best talent in the gaming industry, but also because of the close connection the team had with the community during the early stages. I was even invited to participate in several livestreams and Discord sessions, where players began referring to me as “Artist Kirdein,” named after my in-game character.
