Faced with tragedy and bound to duty, the lone samurai must voyage beyond life and death to confront himself and decide his path forward.
Trek to Yomi is a single-player cinematic journey, where samurai world meets visual artistry of monochromatic film. Breathtaking camera angles and striking shots in the spirit of classic samurai movies create a true cinematic experience.
● 01
Combat HUD
Engage vicious swordsmen and supernatural beings with a streamlined combat system based around the traditional weapons of the samurai.
From the beginning we were looking to create a minimalistic UI system that takes inspiration from traditional calligraphy, but also retro cinema.
We have explored various symbols and layouts to create the ideal balance between style and function.
Our design approach was to blend UI seamlessly into the cinematic experience.
● 02
Proximity UI
To maintain the minimal feel, the UI only appears when necessary and additional in-game hints are driven by context and proximity.
