A stylized Unity environment focused on atmosphere, mood, and visual cohesion. This project was part of a game where the player takes on the role of a bird.
In the video, the wings are based on placeholder asset. I enhanced them with custom particles and textures to better integrate them into the environment.

I created a set of four tree variations that together form the forest. While the base trunk meshes were adapted from an existing asset, the overall design, concept, textures, and visual direction of the trees were fully developed by me.
The environment was built using Unity’s terrain tools, including wind-driven ground vegetation to add movement and life to the scene. Post-processing was used extensively to shape the atmosphere and enhance the overall mood.
