"The Silver Case" + "AI: nirvanA Initiative" wallpaper design test

I should say that I might have rushed myself while putting the photos together. Additionally, writing descriptions for the three images above was quite tedious...

But, I like The Silver Case's overall design style so much, still.

See a portion of The Silver Case PS1's wallpaper set below. It's the basis for what I made.

B1 B2 : BF D1 C6 B3 D1 BC D8 AE B3

A direct style imitation of The Silver Case PlayStation 1's cover art. The game shown is AI: The Somnium Files - nirvanA Initiative.

also on Bluesky

This is the first project where I had to use a very large canvas (2400x3600). The final result has its canvas shrunken down to 2400x3196, and was down-sized to 1200x1598.

Oh, and the code in the title is a reference to The Silver Case in regards to how you solve it. Check out the code sheet in The Silver Case's digital Japanese booklet if you want to try to decode it: https://archive.org/details/TheSilverCasePCManual/BookletJP/ If the Japanese language is selected in The Silver Case, the game will make this as the first type of puzzle you need to solve.

AI: ソムニウム資料

AI: The Somnium Files - nirvanA Initiative's logo in the style of The Silver Case's original logo design

My aim was to recreate the vibe found within primarily the original logo of The Silver Case, which can be seen in the post expansion. To design the "AI" part of the logo, however, I looked at the remastered version's logo as well.

I made some sort of a mock-up settings menu with a barely similar vibe to The Silver Case (PlayStation)'s menu screen.

first design draft

Evidently, I tried to replicate the vertical writing style seen in The Silver Case's original logo, but that didn't go well. The string "ソムニウム資料" alone is evidently too long, making attempts at trying to display it on a normal rectangle screen impractical.

AI: "Film Window" presentation

3rd post

Something about The Silver Case's presentation resonates with me. It also helps that both AI: The Somnium Files and The Silver Case series focus on crimes & investigation as well.

SPOILERS for AINI (AI: The Somnium Files - nirvanA Initiative) in the post expansion.
