Color Palettes

Character

My character is bold, curious, kind, and adventurous. I believe a color scheme of warm colors fits best with this kind of personality to make the player feel comforted and happy to play as this character. I used a website to create my own color palette.

Red: Strong feelings of love and warmth (and anger when the character gets mad).

Orange: Joy and enthusiasm as this character explores a new world.

Yellow: To emphasize the happiness and joy the character feels.

White: Purity, sincerity, good. This character is very trustworthy and noble.

Environment

In a stark contrast to my character, the world doesn't feel so warm and welcoming. Instead, it's filled with darker colors to make the player feel more uneasy, like something bad could happen at any second...and it just might. In this environment, my character acts as the only true light in a world of darkness.

Red: This red is darker than the character's red to bring out a feeling of anger from the surrounding world.

Brown: The reading doesn't have any description for brown, but seeing its use in western and dystopian games, it connotes a feeling of impurity and feels a little off-putting.

Purple: While the world may be creepy, it isn't dirty and gross. Instead, it's a bit more lavish, and the purple really emphasizes that. Think like a very fancy mansion that lacks any inhabitants.

Green: This connotes greed, envy, and even sickness, like the surrounding world has turned into something more disturbing and evil when it was once much brighter.

Black: The starkest contrast to the white of my character. While he represents purity and good, the black represents mystery, as if things are lurking in the shadows, and evil. Clearly, this character isn't welcome in the world he's been placed in.
