If you haven’t, it’s high time to do so because today we’re going to tell you more about our sources of inspiration while developing the game Daydream: Forgotten Sorrow.
Let’s go!
First of all, The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. Although, we’ve already discovered it in one of our previous announcements, that book had a strong emotional impact on us, so, in the game, we wanted to address the topics of loneliness and friendship, love and loss. As a tribute to the Little Prince, Griffin is an image of a little brave boy on his big journey accompanied by his small friend - a teddy bear Birly, which is a reference to the Fox, of course.
Second, the American fantasy TV show Sweet Tooth. We liked it a lot, especially the character design, this way, the protagonist’s deer antlers became a prototype of Griffin’s hat.
If we speak about Griffin’s anatomy proportions, the influence of the animated show Star Butterfly is more than evident: the big head, large eyes, thin hands and legs.
Pixar animated movies are our absolute love and eternal source of inspiration, and we wanted to show that through the visual style of the game and some environmental elements.
Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne is deeper than one may think: Christopher Robin is a symbol of a strong adult in the body of a little boy - just like our Griffin is seen by Birly. And Birly, as well as Winnie, represents the naive and weak side of a child’s nature. We can say, the unity of the kid and its toy is referred to the inner conflict within Griffin, the way he tries to help himself.
You already know that Griffin had family problems, evidently, some childhood traumas too. But what else is Griffin escaping? What sorrows does he bear? Is everything as clear as it seems to be? Once we’ll reveal that too.
