With the new colour palette confirmed I decided to do some more colour testing with this new colour palette to see what the group liked and what they thought would work well, it was also a good indication for Paula to see what combination of colours we would have in the new environment.

Reminder Of New Colour Palette
Here is our new confirmed colour palette for the environment, UI & character to help with better cohesion.

Using the new colour palette I created 4 iterations in which I used different combinations of colours to see what would work well, and what wouldn’t work well. Before I sent over these to the group I already had some thoughts on 2 & 3 as I felt like they didn’t meet the aesthetic that I was trying to create but I didn’t want to voice my opinion until I had sent them over. 1 & 4 on the other hand felt more fitting for the mermaid café and it focused on the colours that myself and Paula had looked at when creating the Miro Board.

Feedback
After our Monday lesson Sophie came over and asked whether we would like another meeting to just check in on how we were doing and also air out anything we wanted feedback on. So myself, Paula, Jessie & Maja had a meeting with Sophie on Tuesday discussing how everything was going in terms of the colour palette and what our goals were for the following weeks to come as we were coming closer to week 5 which was our mandatory playtest.

UPDATE
Before our playtesting Paula had changed the character to fit the environment more, so this is no longer what the character looks like
