Back again...just like a yoyo

Helllooooo people. I have used some brushes in this one I do prefer it. Charrrrrs. G.Night x


Website Research

Hello all, I have been looking for inspiration for the website, to make it functional, aesthetically pleasing and creative. I have at the moment 3 examples of websites that caught my eye.
The first one is the website Vimeo I like this because its simple and clever, the clouds and the hot air balloon follow you down when you scroll, But the real eye catcher is the graphical piece at the bottom. Its slick contemporary and vector style feel makes it cheery and pleasing to the eye. I like the lands 3D feel to it and how you can see the layers of it too. Here it is:


The next website is the Drop Dead, what I like about this one is the simplicity about it, the image in the background and the simple colours. It's easy to navigate and aesthetically pleasing.


And the last one is the Cadburys website, the reason I like this is because its like a virtual movie, the water shimmers and the hot air balloon is hovering about the page. And when you hover over certain objects they move. Its quite picturesque in its own little way, not something that I would design into our site just because we want to keep our site simple. But i also like the simplicity of it all too. Kudos :)


Thats all for now. I will be posting more website ideas later on..

Hello. Is it Tea your looking for?

Okay. firsts things first, I have been working on an image to go at the start of the game, like a story to show people what happened and what you have to do in the game. I showed two of my group members they like it but think I should wait till its done to do stuff like that incase things change in the game while making it. But here it is anyway I'm really proud of it personally.
Another one is an image for the website, similar to this one but simplified here it is. not got much to say about this one. haha

Update time.

Okay havent posted in abit. Things have changed, Matt has got a bit more competent with spine modelling and all that jazz, So we have decided to change how Flux moves. Instead of a floating ball, he wants him to walk and drag the ball behind him. So that mean I had to do back to sketching to get things right. I am happy we have decided to this because it will inevitable make the game better and give more marks (hopefully). I have done some sketching on what it may look like. Here it is...
