About me

My name is Ryan Joseph McDermott, and I am a designer that is overly obsessed with prehistoric life. I enjoy expressing ideas through my work, spending time with family and friends, playing video games, and cosplaying. I have a strong interest in pursuing areas of design including brand identity, packaging, and entertainment advertising.

Game Design

Before Man (2026)

A first-person horror game where you mysteriously collapse into a year-long coma, trapped in a dream that spans from 365 million years ago to the present. The player must withstand environments that were not meant for humanity, avoid prehistoric predators, and accept the inevitability of extinction in order to return back to reality.
