Environment exploration for SIGNAL, a sci-fi horror game around a remote space station being slowly overtaken by an unidentified alien organism. I was heavily inspired by Alien and Dead Space while working on this piece.
This scene follows a dead security patrol officer discovered inside an Gallery deck near a Mining Space Suit Display. The body has been impaled by an unknown lifeform that uses hosts to spread larvae and organic tendrils throughout the station structure.
I wanted to make the scene feel tense without showing the creature directly. Most of the focus went into the lighting from the large ceiling fans, the reflections on the metal surfaces, and using the dead guard and spreading tendrils to hint at what happened on the station.
