Project 3: Development Journal

Project Members: Yeji, William and Ganjina

In our first zoom meeting, we chose two prompts; Apocalypse and Invisible Cities. After talking about our idea in class we decided to end up with the idea of using Invisible Cities which considering the situation that we are right now, would be easier to work on in VR.

We decided to create an impression of the city Valdrada from the Invisible Cities by Calvino, where he says: “the traveler…sees two cities: one erect above the lake and the other reflected upside down”. For the environment we decided to make something similar like Amsterdam streets vibe, where houses are just next to each other.

Yeji – started working on the story

I started building the environment based on the ideas we had in mind, though we had to change it a bit since we couldn’t find some assets. As for now I need to add some more decorations and buildings.

Will – started working on building the dialogue system.

Update:

Added – skybox, decorations and buildings
