I’m Eveline, welcome to my personal site!

I’m a Dutch game developer, illustrator, colorist, designer. All of that because above it all I’m a creator who has never understood why we should inhibit our curiosity and doubt our ability.

Born in North Holland – the province of countless of rivers (“slootjes”) and fields (“polders”) – I grew up with the creative works of famous multitalents and an energetic attitude to help me make my own works. I grew up with books, cartoons and video games; the first game console I encountered was a small box with two joysticks conjuring Pong onto the television screen. From then, through DOS’s Prince of Persia through NES’s Mario through Tomb Raider 1 & 3 I one day started Looking Glass’s Thief: the Dark Project and Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind. Both games had level editors and through them I realized that I could learn to create video games.

My professional career has seen me work on Thief (4), the reboot Tomb Raider series (Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider) and the Lara Croft multiplayer co-op series (Guardian of Light and Temple of Osiris), Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Marvel’s Avengers, Horizon: Zero Dawn, and Spider-Man. Besides working on those titles, I have been and still am the founder of Everforge Studio: the company that gives absolute room to my own creative energy. Humanity’s drive to create works of art and stories is something I hold in the highest regards and I am happiest when learning new skills or further developing existing ones. Both those things mean that it is impossible for me to not occupy my time with creating art and stories.
