2. Style sheet
I chose the electric orange and blue because
those are famous colors in the game, relating
more of the audience to what the product is.
The circular colors are softer in nature,
making them stand out a little less but they
also look very scientific, predominantly
with the old style of science I might use
these colors for text.
The color boxes are traditional
sci-fi colors. Blue, greys and
silver are very popular, along
with black and sometimes
green.

A lot of the designs are quite
boring, with the bold ones
standing out the most. My
favourite font however is the 5th
one which stands out and looks
interesting and scientific. The
bottom text also looks very
scientific, along with it being bold
so that it stands out
4. Style sheet
The designs for
portal are all very
simplistic and use
the same colour
schemes, the font
remains the same
and any characters
are designed in a
similar format.
