General
Location: the Netherlands
The living room is one of the first scenes of the game and already contains some items you can use.
As you can see the game takes place somewhere in the 60’s - 80’s when there was no active internet yet ! That was a great time haha :) I deliberately chose that time as will become clear later in the game.
Design
This is the second scene converted from sketch to pixel perfect style. The difficulty was mainly in getting the proportions and perspective correct. Everything can always be improved, but for now it looks very good with the lighting. There are some animations in it like turning on the TV, or opening the faucet or refrigerator.

Sketch of scene 21
A lot of experience I have gained in building the scene. The integration with Engine3 also works well. A example below.
