Contextual Studies-Limbo


Limbo is a side scrolling puzzle game developed by Danish developers 'Playdead Studios'. I researched into this game for my disability awareness project and I have also been able to play on the game myself. I looked into it again because I thought it would be an ideal design reference to show depression. 
The game uses a distinct visual style that is very similar to film noir. It is monochromatic and uses fog to create a feeling of isolation and eeriness. Within our project team we have decided to use this style to help with our animation.

I am really impressed with what we have made. I hope this is substantial enough for a distinction grade.
