Concept
Prior to this assignment being due, I was going through some of my childhood story books and thats when The Pied Piper of Hamelin inspired me to create this artwork using OOP. In the original story, the Piper plays his magical tune, and all the mice follow him (and later, all the children of the town as well)
But I wanted to keep things happy and do just that part of mice following him in my preferred aesthetic- a night sky. In my version, a glowing dot represents the Piper, and mice randomly appear and start following it. But they’re not just mindless followers—if you move your mouse, you can actually distract them!
When the mice get close to the Piper, they start glowing, like they’re enchanted by some unseen force. To make things even more atmospheric, the background keeps shifting, creating a dreamy, night-sky effect.
