4. Style sheet
As you can see from my style sheet I have decided to use very dark colours as I think this
will make my zombie shooter a lot more authentic and make the setting more
appropriate and immersive for the player, I will use these colours in everything from the
background to the playable character and zombies. You can also see I have used pixel art
and 8-bit games as an inspiration this is due to the style of the game I’m making.

Here is a screenshot of one of my production experiments I made in Photoshop, I chose to use the colours in my style
