Welcome to The Empire Monthly Challenge! You are all welcome to stretch your artist legs. Get out of your comfort zone or artist block, and unleash your full potential!
There are no winners or prizes, it's all about challenging yourself.
The Deadline is purely to indicate the start of the next challenge, if you need more time to finish up that's okay.
The challenge is 2 months long. Plan stages for those 2 months with your own deadlines to be able to achieve quite a lot.
Join in the fun in #challenge-chat on the Dinusty Empire Discord
Finished work can go in #finished-work and will be celebrated!
An environment made from ‘Giant’ props! (Spoiler - they are regular size and the player is tiny!)
Shift your perspective to that of a bug, and how they view the world, all the obstacles they have that are tiny details to a human, and how that can make for an interesting gameplay experience.
Think of how high fidelity these plants will need to be when they are 10x the player's size - what workflow changes are required - and how creatively can you compose them?!
Getting down with nature - what interesting surfaces would be apparent in your garden? Again think of how close you will get to these surfaces, and all the details you’d normally skip over in a third-person, regularly scaled game!
