Davide Pellino, Art Director at Dogubomb
Blue Prince is a groundbreaking roguelike-puzzle game that launched in April 2025 as the highest-rated game of the year on Metacritic, scoring an outstanding 93/100 and emerging as a top Game of the Year contender. Celebrated for its scale and depth, it has drawn players into 100+ hours of gameplay. Yet one of its greatest secrets remains: every room and its iconic stylized visuals were created in Blender using just one shader and four textures.
I’m Davide Pellino, born in Italy in 1986. A self-taught 3D Artist and Art Director, I began in 2015 out of pure curiosity and never looked back. Ten thousand hours later, I knew game dev was my life. When I’m not building worlds, I’m playing guitar, still chasing the rockstar dream. I love dogs, parks, good food. I just want to be happy, and creating makes me so.
