Numerous considerations shaped the creation of the crew members. Foremost, given their self-insertion nature, it was imperative for them to maintain a gender-neutral appearance. Drawing from both contemporary and futuristic concepts, the design of their suits integrates distinct elements to enhance the narrative's integrity.

Malware

Our aim was to blend organic and technological features seamlessly for the malwares. Moreover, we strived to infuse an air of mystique and eeriness into their depiction as adversaries, considering their pivotal role in the story.

Enviroments

The backgrounds draw inspiration from natural elements infused with cybernetic touches. From desert landscapes to inhospitable environments like the dunes where malwares thrive, and the icy terrain of an ally planet, to the futuristic Conecta station and the vast expanse of outer space, each setting is meticulously crafted to enhance the visual narrative.

Postproc effects

Extensive visual narrative techniques were utilized, including the Bloom technique for a futuristic look and the Flou effect for softening lights, inspired by classic sci-fi series like Star Trek. Selection of vfx and sfx further heightened scenes, conveying emotions and motivations driving the project.
