DragonFly Games Studio is an independent game development studio working on Beyond the Oaks. What began as a freelance writing project developed into a full website design and development engagement, giving the studio a central place to showcase its work, introduce the game, share development content, and sell products.

The Challenge

DragonFly Games needed a website that could introduce the studio and Beyond the Oaks while giving visitors an easy way to explore its work and follow the development process.

The project also needed to support several different types of content, including game information, video, written development updates, company information, and an online shop.

The goal was to create a visually driven experience that let the studio’s work and creative identity take center stage rather than relying on dense blocks of text.

What I Did

I designed and developed the website from a blank Webflow canvas, building the structure around the studio’s visual identity and the content it needed to present.

Webflow was a new platform for me at the time, so the project required learning a different approach to website development. I used Webflow University alongside independent research and hands-on problem solving to develop the site over approximately four months.

Core website components included:

• Custom-designed Home page and visual presentation
• Dedicated Beyond the Oaks game page
• About and Contact pages
• Integrated Webflow e-commerce store
• YouTube video integration
• External Medium blog integration
• Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet, and mobile

Design inspiration came from established game studios including Campo Santo, Bungie, and Insomniac Games, while the final site was developed specifically around DragonFly Games’ own identity and content.

The Outcome

The finished website gave DragonFly Games a centralized digital home for its studio, its upcoming game, development content, video, and products.

What began as a freelance writing assignment ultimately expanded into a broader creative and digital engagement, combining writing, web design, development, and visual presentation into a single project.
