We did some progress today by implementing the graphics we have worked on for some weeks now. The mountains have been replaced by the more detailed ones. Even though the mountains looks pretty nice we are still thinking about the mountains being to saturated and one solution would be to have some kind of fog or similar to make them less visible.
The grass was also replaced by water lilies. It's been a lot of remodeling of the water lilies because it's hard to see how the graphics will look like when they are in motion.
Water progress!
We’ve had some trouble with designing the water – to make it look realistic and still keep our origami style. We tried different sizes of triangles and also different blue color tones. After trying a couple of designs we decided to go for rather large triangles with a bit darker blue color tones.
This made the water look pretty good but we still faced the problem of making the water look realistic. With solid shapes it looked like a solid material and not like water. To solve this we decided to make the water layer a bit transparent and put other elements beneath that layer in order to create some depth.
