Destroy the Forest is an animated sequence used for the development of an indie game that I am currently designing. In this sequence, I present a satirical devil’s advocate approach to environmental degradation. While the project addresses the issue of deforestation specifically, at its core it is much more about human paranoia and the conflicts that ensue from that mindset. The concept of the animation revolves around situationally irrelevant facts and illogical conclusions being twisted into a motive for destruction, and creating an enemies where there should be none. While the Animation itself does not show actual game play, it shows off the art style, design, and personality of the environment, which aims to encourage further interest. In this animation I aimed to combine both slapstick traits of humor with deeper, darker, satire in order to communicate an emotionally complex and captivating environment.
