5Video games are a popular and widespread medium, that can be used as an educational tool that showcases or promotes different cultures and areas that engulf the players as they explore it.Making my diploma thesis I decided to research the area of video game production, conceptual and technical aspects alike. I wonder how to express a personal experience of our surroundings, specifically the city centre of Ljubljana, through environmental and character design. In the project I will also include interesting elements of our cultural and historical heritage.Video games combine multiple creative areas. I will focus on designing playable and non-playable characters and the environment, elements that support the story of the game. The final product of the project will be a player's guide booklet for the video game, that will act as a presentation of the game's elements, as well as a base for a demo version of the video game.
