Now that the core outline was complete it was time to give more details to the story. My team and I first started by researching World War One for inspiration. Our research brought us fruit quickly. We discovered a ship known as the Lusitania which was a military cargo ship disguised as a luxury civilian vessel that transported weapons during World War 1. This is almost identical to the backstory that had already been constructed for the ship known as "The Atlas" that players explored in game.
We decided to model the ship's interior and layout based off of the Lusitania's. The level designers and artists used this to begin modeling what the inside of the ship would look like. Meanwhile I began adapting my narrative too successfully lead the player though all the level's naturally.
