2. Initial Reaction
• I feel that this project seems really interesting, this is because I have no
prior experience in any of the skills we are using so I get to learn as I’m
producing the work. Another reason why this project seems interesting is
because it coincides with my main hobby which is gaming so it will be
good to combine things that I enjoy.
6. Mood Board Analysis
Is there any repetition in the images you have collected?
For my images I went for quite a dark colour scheme, this is to match the
overall dark aesthetic I want the game to have with the UI and enemy design.
Another thing that I looked for in my images was medievil or futuristic
themes as I want my game to combine these.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
I plan to take inspiration from the colours of most of these images when
designing my characters and background. I am also going to base my
character designs in the menu off of some of the characters seen in these
images.
