Inspirational Images 8


The main focus today is on app/mobile games. While searching through pinterest, I did come across a pin of Deponia which I've only seen on the computer. Despite this, I decided to include it as I feel it deserves a mention.

Image1: "Deponia", from what I what I'm aware of isn't an app game but I do appreciate it for several different elements such as: the story full of quirky humor, good character development especially the main character who is a jerk at the start, visual style and game play the requires you to think outside the box.

Image2: "Crazy Boo" is a an app game that I find appealing in the fact that it combines 2D and 3D visual elements together really well. This can be a challenge to achieve but when successful, can result in amazing visuals.

Image3:This is an online game from miniclip.com. This is mainly to show the UI elements which are really nice, but what I also find inspirational is the level design. The colors and background elements suit the overall genre, which I believe is a side scrolling shooter.

Image4: "Darklings" a game made in the Unity game engine. What I find appealing about this game is the character designs and the visual style, which defers from other games out there.

Image5: "Lighting Boy" is a game that has inspired me through it's visual style. It's the quality I aim for in the current game I'm working on for game design. In order to achieve visuals of this quality, I'd need to work on my digital painting skills. However right now I'm focusing on mastering Stencyl.
