NIGHTTIME

Images from: Show

Your job is to create a background set at nighttime. It can be anything you want: a starry night in the countryside, a futuristic city at night, a dark alley, or something else entirely! Even a rock concert, as long as it takes place at night.

Deadline: ~~18th~~ 25th of May 2018

Voting:

Concept: your background should tell us something about the place you have depicted.
Playability: does it have clearly defined walkable areas, things to interact with, etc?
Artistic Execution: does the image convey the wanted atmosphere? What's the feeling of the place?

Good luck!

Great theme! Here's a little something I whipped up

I like your background, Mouth for war!
It has a lovely atmosphere, it makes you feel like you're under the moonlight. And the light creates some nice contrast.

Thank you very much! I'm a sucker for doing landscape backgrounds haha

Since the deadline isn't until next Friday, I plan to to make my background this weekend.

lorenzo · « **Reply #6 on:** 15 May 2018, 09:05 »

A quick reminder: the deadline is Friday. If anyone is working on his entry and need more time, let me know, and I can add a few days to the competition!

Come on, don't let Mouth for war win by default!

I could submit an all-black rectangle, if that helps.

VampireWombat · « **Reply #8 on:** 15 May 2018, 13:23 »

If you want more than a generic sky with a low detail moon then I probably do need an extension until like Sunday.
Unfortunately, Friday is also the due day for the GameJam and I'm still attempting to finish something for it.

That would be a very minimalist background!

Sorry, I didn't know about the Game Jam, I would've chosen another day otherwise.
I'll extend the competition for another week. The new deadline is the 25th of May!

Maybe you should lure some MAGS participants to join the blitz. Someone might have already drawn a night scene for their MAGS game or perhaps is planning to.

If you'd add a pair of eyes, it could actually pass as a fairly functional background

And here's my entry:

Nighttime sounded like a good excuse to try out a limited palette

lorenzo · « **Reply #12 on:** 18 May 2018, 09:01 »

I'm always impressed with what people can create with a few pixels and a limited palette. That's a really cool background, Kastchey, very atmospheric! It's detailed enough to make you understand what's going on, but it leaves enough room to the imagination.

I just made a sequence for my MAGS game, and thought it could fit well in the theme (or as well as a tangent can be

).

Amazing entries! Inspired me to do a quick one myself - this is a bit of a photobash experiment, some "dirty tools" too.

Rock into the night!

Mouth for war · « **Reply #15 on:** 20 May 2018, 22:41 »

Ah nice to see more entries here. Great work everyone

lorenzo · « **Reply #16 on:** 21 May 2018, 13:33 »

Cassiebsg: as long as the background is set at night, it's fine.

Best of luck with your MAGS game!

Pinback: great background, I love the lighting and the sense of scale.

regularryan · « **Reply #17 on:** 24 May 2018, 06:35 »

A work in progress. Won't have it finished by the deadline but still wanted to submit something

Gurok · « **Reply #18 on:** 24 May 2018, 06:37 »

Looks really good, regularryan! Nice silhouettes in the distance.

VampireWombat · « **Reply #19 on:** 24 May 2018, 21:36 »

Alright, here's my entry.
Not too creative, but it's what I was inspired to make.
