Nodevember Concussion Padding

Some of the gameplay mechanics for this area included freezing pipes, recharging the power core, and shooting the ANT bots. With those mechanics in mind, we started developing the space.  Concept Initial Concept      The station core went through many iterations. In the initial concept the station core was cylindrical and too symmetrical while the overall map layout was too confusing. Having the player constantly rotate in a circle to complete objectives was not ideal as it would cause them to tangle themselves in the oculus wires. With the concerns in mind, we did another pass on the room concept. Second Pass       With the new layout we managed to add depth to the environment and add interest without the player feeling overwhelmed. The areas indicated on the legend remained the s...

It gave some 3D definition and supported the occlusion. Undertone capture Adjusting the light color to reflect the environment
