Ancient Memories
7 Days of Sky day 5
Early on they wanted to show this area was heavily impacted by progress. In a really early concept Wasteland was full of modern factories. They kept the industrialization elements later on but as development went on it became something that blended more into Sky’s universe.
This area is full of signs of a war between the ancestors and creatures. They also came up with the story of the ancestors building an Ark to try to survive the disaster that brought their end, this concept was later revisited during the Season of Enchantment. The Elder was imagined as a soldier who lost all hope and was full of regrets from their actions. Meeting Skykids gave them hope again. This is pretty similar to what they eventually settled on in the final version.
At one point they played with the idea of a corrupted elder. They would attack Skykids and to progress you would have to sacrifice light to save them.
The earlier concepts for Krill were very different before they settled on what we know today. At one point they were a sentient blob that would wrap around things. They knew fairly early on they wanted to create something scary.
