Dirty Alley Main Menu Backgroundart
The main menu was a challenge to create, with approximately 50+ workhours. Part of the process was streamed on the "Dark Paradigm Games"- Twitch channel, part was done offline. The entire menu is functional and working inside unity 2018 and above. The difficulty lied in making the menu fit for ultra-wide monitors and therefore working in a very high resolution. As well as the need to either be able to skip screens or modular buttons.
Entire Main Menu Background for the project "Dramatic Past". The picture is done in Adobe Photoshop CC 2019. Each picture is a frame in a seamless menu screen with flickering signs as buttons.
Each frame was supposed to have it's own point of interest in the distance as well as unused space in the mid - to foreground for the use of buttons.
Throughout the scenery there are small story-relevant details hidden. The "Royal Tomato" is one of the mayor points of interests in the story. Making this the first screen the player will see.
This is the only screen in which the player sees the city of robots. The sky is lit up and has more of an unnatural feeling.
The phrase "Blood not oil" can be found throughout the main menu and indicates the rebellion that is about to happen. This screen was partly streamed and functions as a credits page. Notice the small cat, sleeping, an idea of the DP's twitch community.
Purposefully open-space for 3D/2D objects, that may enter the scene during certain parts of the story.
