For a 3D modeling class we had to design a game concept and provide both 2D and 3D renders/concept art. This game was created within 3 weeks and provided a strong basis for game concept skills.

13. • Throughout the level most of the lighting will come from florescent panel lights which will line the hallways and the
rooms which are classified as a “point light.”
• Lights are not in perfect condition
• May be hanging
• Decayed
• Fallen
• Flickering
• Dark
• Shattered
• The other major type of light within the level will be hanging lamps. These will provide “point light” as well along with
many not being in perfect condition.
• Some points within the level will still have perfect lighting, so the player does not just get comfortable or adjusted to
the dimness.
• Sections of halls and corners of rooms will be almost black with sections of very dim lighting in between to set the
mood we are conveying.
• Level is darker than the others
• Lighting and color will be decayed
• Decreped
• Dark
• Creepy
• Broken
• Lit a little better than F.E.A.R. (Horror Game)
