The type of nostalgia I intend to evoke in the people that play my game, is childhood nostalgia. For me this surfaces when I think of a holidy I went on with my family in 2016 when I was 11.

I know what type of nostalgia I feel when I think about it but I wanted to get different perspectives on it so I asked my family what kind of emotions they feel, key moments they remember, sights, sounds, scents etc that comes up when they look back.

My mother –

• Jellyrolls rocking, sportsbar cheering. Street artists bringing joy to a small crowd. Grabbing pizza in a Mickey box, ice cream in what felt like a million flavours. Feeling safe cocooned in that Disney bubble, in a part of Disney that feels like a secret that you want to guard closely…

My oldest sister –

• Clogging up camera rolls with photos of ducks because they remind of us somewhere known in a place half known, half dreamt.

My middle sister –

• Best ice cream in the world, and zigzagging to hit 40,000 steps

Take aways –

Food – Ice cream, mickey pizza

Locations – A sportsbar, the piano bar jellyrolls

Attractions – Street artists along the boardwalk, lots of ducks

Holiday Photographs –

These are pictures from the holiday I took all of them except for the one of me. These pictures demonstrate what kind of visual effects and look I want the game to have, blurry almost airbrushed with a glow emanating from them.
