Yeah, so it's a little early. We're a bit dysfunctional over here, but we're having fun doing it. Whether you're spending the day with your special boo, several boos, or taking the opportunity for some self-loving, the guys and I hope you have a great weekend!
Cheers,
Lighting. Shadows.
These two factors can have a huge impact in how a scene impacts a viewer or player. This is particularly true for a story with a horror theme. When everything is lit up like Times Square, creatures and people who are written as hiding in the shadows, looming at the edge, ...
