THE LORE
In the future humans have had significant advancements in civilization due to a great resource called "Delerium". Delerium is a special metal which when infused with various forms of technology turned out to be the ultimate energy resource for machines and even standard devices like phones. Humanity depended on it.
But unlike other resources of energy at the time, Earth was running out of Delerium. Over hundreds of years ago, a meteor struck the earth in the middle of the desert. Scientists discovered the strange metal and conducted research. Infusing products with Delerium was the new normal until strange things started happening throughout the world.
Humans started getting tired and unproductive and technology started taking over manual labor. Robots started replacing Humans. But nothing stopped humans from wanting more of Delerium. The U.T.C (Universal Trade Commission) has funded an intergalactic search and retrieve mission to obtain more Delerium and has formed a Spaceteam of Astronauts. They send the Spaceteam on their first mission to planet Xandar where they encounter a new mystery that threatens life on their own planet as well as many others.
Planet 1 | XANDAR
You’ve joined the Space Team and you’re now officially on mission duty and are ready to travel to the first planet on your radar in search of Delerium. Upon arrival, you only find the remains of what once was. An advanced civilization that only ceases to exist. As you explore this post-apocalyptic world you find the metal ruins of a subway. As you follow these tracks you begin to observe that the trains use a unique resource for their energy. Lots of dead beings. You notice something on the ground and reach to pick it up, it’s a device that had every single news report until the day of the apocalypse. "What happened here?" You ask while looking around. "Everything seemed to be near perfect? There are no weapons, no signs of a nuclear explosion or invasion..."
As you swipe through the many news articles, you discover a report that suggests many other planets within your reach and also a note which needs to be deciphered to understand it. These planets could've been this civilization's last resort in what looks like an escape plan to preserve their kind. Your team believes these planets might have answers about Delerium and also knowledge about what happened to this planet. Your journey as part of the Space Team has only just begun. You decide to make a note of the coordinates of these planets and chart a course towards them.
ANIMATING WEAPON ICONS
I also got to animate the weapon art created by a fellow intern and also write the description for each one of them. Here are some of my favorites...
