Publish or Perish Board Game Box Cover

Publish or Perish was developed as a cooperative board game for a Kickstarter campaign in which players race to complete scientific research while managing increasingly chaotic laboratory conditions. I was commissioned to create the featured box cover illustration, developing a dynamic scene that captured the pressure, humor, and energy of the game's theme. The illustration introduced the game's scientist characters and particle creatures while establishing a colorful visual style intended to attract attention on the Kickstarter campaign page. The illustration served as the primary marketing image for the Kickstarter campaign and established the visual direction for the project.
