W05 Final Mood Board

For my overall colors I chose colors that almost look as if they came from a toy box. I wanted many pop colors that are different, but work well with each other and have a purpose. The background is white because the snow on the mountain will be white, making it the main color of the game. The forest green is used in the trees along the trails, varying in sub color. The tan will be the color of the tree stalks, varying in darkness. The blue will be the color of the sky. The black is used in accents. All colors can be used in equipment because it is subject to change based on which equipment is unlocked. 






All of the main colors are used in the environment . However I included the darker white color because the trees will provide shade on some parts of the mountain, creating a grey/white color.














The skier options have a few sub colors because there are many more options. I changed the bright pink to a red/pink because red will be used in other aspects of the game. The blue is just a darker blue then the one in the main color because it will be bold and stand out as the skier equipment should. I included black again because it will be utilized as an accent color in most of the equipment on a zipper, marking or hat. 










The obstacles have two sub colors. There is a beige/tan color that is a sub color of the tan/yellow main color. This is the color of the polar bear because it cannot be pure white or it would blend in with the snow. The bright yellow is the actual caution that is a brighter version of the tan/yellow main color. The red is the color of the ski patrol, but was included as a main color.










The safety objects have three sub colors. The yellow is similar to the yellow in the obstacles, but with a slighter hint of orange to it. I chose to change the color of the lightening bolt to a free/yellow. It will still pop out, but it will be a sub color of the yellow main color and the forest green. The grey color is a sub color of the black main color because it is the color of the fish. The medical kit is red and white, both of which are main colors.

  1. Really nice idea you got there! This ski game reminds me of some of my childhood games where the player would roll down a mountain while maneuvering through obstacles. The colors that you use are really intense which will make them get enhanced in the players vision. For instance if you have a white bluish colored snow you can add more orange to the safety objects so that you can pull a greater attention from the player.

  2. really well laid out color research and then application of the palettes to the areas of your game.
