FINAL RENDER IN UNITY
A facade in the frozen wastes
Nestled within a world in the near future, a hidden research center drains a highly magnetic dust from the core of the earth, trying to profit from the ongoing energy crisis. Disrupting the world's magnetic fields and dyeing the northern lights in an unnatural crimson.
DESIGN PRINCIPLES / STORY BEATS
a hopeless journey
We wanted to create a sense of isolation - lost in the snow, with no chance of aid. Stumbling into a place that is beyond your understanding, messing with things that weren't meant for you. Seeing the consequences of your actions and finally accepting your solemn despair as the facility and everything around it is coated in a crimson red aurora.

The magnetic drill
The facility harvests a highly magnetic dust from the core of the earth, called Luminal, with drills like this. The entire facility refines, researches and is even powered by this experimental energy source.
CHARACTER DESIGN
THE METEOROLOGIST
The meteorologist is sent north to investigate mysterious magnetic storms in the north of Greenland. Their vehicle is blown away by powerful magnetic forces - stranding the meteorologist alone in the snow.
To camouflage their identity, the meteorologist is coated in a monochrome white and hides their identity behind a mask. Wearing non-magnetic metal plating and hidden equipment to survey the weather in harsh conditions.
