Title: AGI Background Construction Help
Post by: Privateer Puddin' on Mon 10/05/2010 11:11:18
Hello Critics Lounge! Long time no see.

I've been trying to put together a background for a while and can't get it right.

Here's the brief: 3 rooms, 1 large room and 2 smaller rooms, for the interior of this bungalow

Here are some rough attempts!

This is the general idea, 3 rooms, the second smaller room can't be accessed by the large room, but instead by going over the top (see below)

Kinda like the idea of a small attic space replacing the second room, but not really sure about doing it above the perspective point.

Vents like this look out of place, but this kind of thing, where the player crawls between the two rooms.

I think a mix between the second and third attempt, with a small crawl able space between the room's ceiling and the roof, would be ideal? Problem is it gets quite wide and so the two smaller rooms look quite odd, not being able to see much of the back wall?

If you don't want to change the outside view, you can't really make an attic. The roof is too flat.

How about something like this, the combination of 2 and 3 that I mentioned? Small bit of space above the ceiling which the player could crawl through.

Looks fine to me, but it might need to be a little bigger.
