PROJECT OVERVIEW
This is project is the creation of a first person shooter called 'Aftershock'. Aftershock is a PS1 style movement shooter that focuses on fast paced movement and momentum, and features a range of weapons from revolvers to railguns.
As the artist of this project I attempted to replicate the graphics of a PS1 game. I tried to fit within the technical constraints of the console so kept my models as close to 500 triangles as possible, and used textures with a resolution of 256x256 pixels.
I created this game in collaboration with Daniel Henshaw (2nd year), a skilled programmer who specialises in C# and Unity, and Oscar Ellis (1st year) a budding music student who is composing original soundtracks to be included in our game.

MEET THE TEAM
Hey, I'm James. I am the Co-Owner and a 3D Artist @ Insignia Interactive. I'm an 18 year old who, Like a lot of other people, has had a passion for games from a young age. I've always entertained the idea of going into a career in games. After failing my first exams at A-levels I lost a lot of my motivation to carry on down a 'standard ' education route so moved to a course in games design which I've loved so far. I specialize in 3D modelling and generally work on the visual aspects of games.
Hello, I'm Dan. I am the Owner and a developer @ Insignia Interactive. I started creating small games when I was 12 years old. Eventually, when I had left high school, I decided to do a Games Design course at Barnsley College. During this course, I created Insignia Interactive with a fellow student. My dream is to create innovative game ideas with cool features for everybody to play and enjoy!
Hi, I’m Oscar. I am a Composer @ Insignia Interactive. I have always wanted to work in the video game industry and when I discovered my passion for music, it seemed like a given to put the two together. I enjoy all types of games, but my favourites always have a great soundtrack. My favourite game OST’s are from the Persona series, the Danganronpa series and the Risk of Rain games. I am pursuing music production throughout college and hope to continue through university. My main instrument is the bass guitar and I use Logic Pro as my DAW.
