Today we want to give you a little respite. After all, it's summer, the sun mercilessly heats our backs and necks, so you can't get tired. And nothing relaxes like a good movie, maybe even a few. And we know where to find them.
Today, much like our approach to other locations, we’re excited to present to you various weather-inspired conceptual artworks depicting Kopachi.
Today we're going to take a look at some supporting characters. Contrary to appearances, creating them was as big a challenge as in the case of the main characters. Take our buddy Olivier as an example.
The fractal world was one of the most exciting projects we've worked on. Just imagine: you're creating a bridge between the real world and a location where time and place don't exist. Today we return to this topic. This time we want to show you the first attempts at turning our ideas into reality.
Before the Shadows evolved into the Borderers you have met, we had the opportunity to test them a bit: we drew their variations on the background of corridors in buildings. This way, we wanted to see if these creatures would be able to scare someone, especially indoors.
In the process of sorting out materials from the early days of Chernobylite development, we came across some that we had almost forgotten about. They are fascinating, and they relate to a rather crucial moment of production: we were thinking about what the creatures scaring players in the Zone should look like.
Tatyana is not your typical damsel in distress. She is a fully independent character who haunts Igor in his dreams. But who she really is? An apparition? A hallucination? Igor's conscience? Or maybe a being from another dimension in human form? Whoever she is, we know one thing: she was one of the most fascinating characters we had to create.
For now, we will set aside graphics from various locations around Chernobyl, but not forever! We'll revisit them later to show you how everything was originally supposed to look in the game. Today, as promised, we’ll take a closer look at the first concept art of the main characters of Chernobylite. Let's start with our main character.
