Art Direction on Left For Dead

[ad_hominem]

The Left For Dead team have posted another update on the official blog, this time looking into what they describe as 'stylised darkness'. In the article, they go into detail about how the lighting, fog and texture variations all help towards creating an art direction that enhances "aesthetics, fiction and gameplay".

Check out the full post here, or read the first part on Left 4 Dead's art direction (filmic effects).

Read on the Left 4 Dead steam forums. All the users can do is bitch about how the developers should have sent the guy who wrote it to the forums to answer their questions...

Interesting read, I love these dev blogs.

Not really anything new, basically just what they covered at GDC in Blog format. Hard to get excited over in my opinion.

I always like these blogs they post on their development process. Now update please Valve.
L4D is really awesome, but some updates would help alot.
