Since my character is based on the wendigo, a mythical forest monster, it made sense to go for a more horror themed platformer.
Trees:
It’s only natural for forests to have trees. These trees are not only decorative but have branches that serve as platforms as well. I’ve only used one type of tree in this demonstration but for my full game I would like to incorporate a variety of tree shapes with different platforms.
Floating Rocks:
These floating rocks would serve as moving platforms. Players will have to climb trees in order to reach them. These harder to reach places is where I would place any treasures or items.
Clouds:
The clouds are just a simple addition to the background and I made them purple to make them look more dark and unsettling.
Moon:
I added the moon to the background to make it clear that it is night time which adds to the dark tone of the scene.
