In this inspiration post for Nails, we look at different kitchens and living rooms.
I found that most of the games I looked at combined the kitchen and living room into one screen. In Nails, I want the kitchen and the living room to be separate rooms, mostly because thatās how it is in my apartment. And I want to be able to recognize my apartment in the game. I hope that will translate to the players recognizing their own apartments and homes in it as well.Ā
The game will only have four rooms. A living room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. And even though they will be pixelated, my hope is that players will be able to feel like the apartment is their own.
I think that using a top down view, instead of a first person view for example, will help with that feeling. In first person, the player would have to take some time to acclimate themselves to the space and learn the layout of the apartment. Using a top down view, the player will be able to see the complete layout of the apartment and will easily be able to traverse it.
