Last May, I moved from New England to the California Bay Area. This is my first winter since 2002 without snow. I want to wander around in the snow. I want to wander around in my idealized memory of what it is like to walk around in the snow. Maybe I'll throw in some music and psychedelia, who knows.
Oh, I totally forgot to talk about the, uh, neat part. Spoilers: there will be artefacts hidden around the environment. Bringing these artefacts near a campfire will make them play music loops. The act of placing and removing these artefacts from the campfire will be akin to arranging and sequencing tracks in a program like Ableton.
I'll post screenshots every time I have something neat to show. Feel free to ask questions about how I did stuff and I'll share.
Here's day 1:
I'm using Unity for this project.
Next up is: adding a particle system for snow (and maybe refraction shaders for snow particle collisions with the camera) and adding things to explore and look at in the environment.
EDIT: added description of the sequencer aspect of the program.
