There’s something about those colours- often dreary blues, greens or purples contrasting with the warm cosy lights of the buildings that I adore. I’m going to start with one of my initial influences, John Atkinson Grimshaw, who is famous for his nighttime victorian urban landscapes. I’ve referenced pieces from their social media where possible, so check them out! The City ‘Shipping on the Clyde’ John Atkinson Grimshaw ‘Liverpool Docks by Moonlight’ John Atkinson Grimshaw
Please note that the pieces of work shown in this post belong to their respective authors, and have nothing to do with me. In this post, I’ll share some of my visual inspirations that will shape the game’s world. With this project being very firmly rooted in the noir genre, something famous for it’s black and white cinematic origins, the question is how do I translate that passion for colourful visuals over to this project while keeping that edgy atmosphere. You may have noticed from Concrete Jungle, I’m a fan of vivid colours. Specifically, this post is about my inspirations- hopefully, you’ll get to see inside my head a bit and get a better picture of what Shadows of Doubt will end up looking and feeling like.
So I’m going to use this post to talk about world building– something I enjoy immensely (and something I didn’t get to do much of for Concrete Jungle). I’ve been getting closer to my milestone of having something playable to show off, but the things I’ve been working on have mostly already been mentioned in previous blogs.
