Putting together the bars was definitely the most creatively interesting as well as rewarding part of the process. In the future, our enoki characters will be playing on the floating tabletops and serving drinks from the bars!

When viewed from the center platform where the games will occur, the depth of the forest looks very cool affected by the fog! The floating trees were carefully placed to mimic a forest with real distance and height variability

At first I started laying out the placements of the platforms and the bridges to get a feel where things would exist in the environment. It didn't have the most glamorous start, but I wanted to make sure all players of the game got a stunning view no matter where they were seated.

The environment is still a work in progress, but here are some process images of how I brought the vision of a whimsical forest bar to life. The world building definitely brings the gameplay experience to life
