ARTIST BIO

LUCY REESE is ZEITGHOST GAMES. ZEITGHOST GAMES is the project of LUCY REESE.

LUCY REESE (she/her) is an Oakland-born, Santa Cruz-based independent artist and games designer. She is a student of Art and Design: Games and Playable Media at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Her areas of passion are role-playing games, tactical games, and worldbuilding. She also wants to make games that integrate aspects of her trans identity into the core frameworks, making games that are deeply and symbolically transgender. In her time not otherwise dedicated to school or game development, LUCY likes to write and draw, read political theory, and play her favorite obscure combat sport, Jugger.

LUCY likes good food, walks in dark places with big jackets, and history. She doesn't like "cozy" games, imperialist-capitalism, and quiche. She has many names, and also goes by "Lucerne" (if you're being formal) or "Her Majesty, Crown Princess Lucerne" (if you're being very very formal). Her favorite weapon is the bill hook (not the lucerne hammer, which is her namesake but not her favorite). She doesn't know what her dream project is yet, but she already knows it's going to be great.
