Apollo Accord Minor Update

TL;DR: Minor updates that improve the UX


Focused on cleaning up the lighting and improving legibility.

  • Removed excessive effects like film grain and motion blur that reduces clarity and bogs down performance.
  • Added stylized backgrounds to the quest HUD so there’s more contrast between the scene and text. Colors are matched to the 70’s - 80’s retro kind of color scheme (I think it was called supergraphics) that I feel like represents the golden age of space.

Again, HDR screenshots look overly bright, explaining the blinding white of the screenshot attached.


Next Steps

I am going to work more on the story next, up until the player interacts with the aliens. After that, I’m going to implement gameplay mechanics for communicating with external civilizations, which will mark a departure from the first person camera for a bit.
