The Art Direction of IsometricLow-Poly

For the art direction, I am going for a surreal and minimalist approach. The reason is to let people immerse into the world without giving them full details of the objects and environment but rather letting them visualize it themselves. It's a combination of audience's imagination and memories assisted through Isometric low-poly visual. 




These are some of the props that i have downloaded from Unity Store and used it in my levels. I have to be very careful because not everything are suitable to the art style that I envisioned even though everything is low-poly.




I have also downloaded the "Simple Home Stuff" for my levels. I had to tweak some of the shape and colors so it would blend into the environment nicely. All these props helped me along the way to realizing the whole environment for each levels, whether its for placeholders outside the window or some interior decoration to make the world seems like someone lived in it before.

Without a unique design, the title will have no characteristic that relates to the game itself. Here are the few version that I have came up with. After letting my lecturer review on the designs, she selected a few that I can further enhance it for my game. I've also asked around for my friends opinion and the majority also picking the 3 design that my lecturer selected.  I have tried one of the suggestion from my lecturer but at the end I didn't use the one below... ...and instead go for this as it look more aligned and still retain the 3D effect of the font.

Video Game Narrative

After much thought, I have decided to develop a game which focused first person narrative. So why I chose this genre you might ask? I have always been interested in making a game which is able to immerse the players into the game world as well as able to create an emotional story to compliment it.  My game will be called ‘ Echoes Of Life ’. It will heavily rely on visual and sound to tell a personal and emotional story of a character’s life.  The game itself will be taking place in that character’s mind when he is facing a near-death experience. The game started off with a 42 years old guy named Tom as he is walking down the street and suddenly he got held up by a mugger with a gun. His whole life flashes before his eyes as he went through a near-death experience during that incident. All the key moments of his life will be fleshed out in each of the different surreal rooms leading up to his final moment. From here on, A world hub will be provided to the pl...
