Prior to release, I've tasked myself to create a sort of "Visual style" for the project, to use it in public media, on official website, and even for distributive icon! My goal was to reflect project's idea & feel through simple artwork, with the use of only shapes, outlines and color combinations. At first I was trying to take some elements from EA's "NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (PS2)", like adding vehicle blueprints to background, but it quickly became apparent, that it's not working out there. At last, instead of blueprints, I took shapes of some of tropical flora, to kind of reflect environment of the game. I think the final result works the best, and looks the cleanest out of all attempts.
