A Stylised World



There are two prominent ideas we have been looking at.

The first idea being a sleek shooter with crazy weapons. I liked the sleek and cool aesthetic of mad men combined with the fast paced and vibrant aesthetic of Jamie hewlett’s work. Killer is Dead is another good example.


Andy mentioned American Psycho and although the film has extremely dark themes, the most prominent one in terms of aesthetic being the contrast between the cool aesthetic of a suit and a weapon to the brutal actions of the character wielding them.

The second idea focuses more on car culture however instead of this it would be mechs. We liked the idea of a world with crazy technology but a world that still feels similar to our own. We started thinking of ways in which mechs were developed to be normal in the world we were creating. The idea that these mechs were used as war machines and then repurposed to be used in other areas, like crop farming or mining was interesting.
