Synopsis
I am creating a realistic 3d environment inside Unreal Engine 5. The basis for my environment will be abandoned areas and will take inspiration from games such as The Last of Us, Metro and Stalker as well as real life locations such as Chernobyl, Houtouwan and Tskaltubo. I decided to create a classroom as it allows me to convey a story that would entice urban explorers and be somewhere people would be interested in exploring both in the real world and in game. Much of my time is focused on set dressing, lighting, texturing, modelling and more.
Creating a 3d environment through a look into urban exploration and the fascination behind abandoned locations
I am creating a 3d environment through research into urban exploration. Asking questions such as why do people love to explore abandoned areas?
Credits
'Creating a 3d environment through a look into urban exploration and the fascination behind abandoned locations' is a 2023 Digital Graduate Show project by Lewis Goodnight, a Games Design and Production student at Abertay University.
Project Motivation
I've always been a fan of urban exploration and love to visit these types of locations. I also love to play games in which these themes are present so I knew I wanted to create something like this for my honours project.
