I wanted to make something in the vein of side scrollers like Hollow Knight, Ori, and Dead Cells, but with my own spin on it. I love the set piece rooms where you find a chest with an item and there is a cool back drop with a bit of back story, and I just wanted to attempt to make something similar. I also messed around with some VR workflows for creating the background meshes. I also used megascans for the plants.
