Hull Blast
This project undertook turning a warehouse in Hull into an exciting arena for Yorkshire’s first toy dart-gun arena. The warehouse was split into two separate game environments, one themed around a post-apocalyptic England street and the other themed as a futuristic space battle on a distant moon. The various themed obstacles were used as cover to duck behind and shoot over with toy guns.
One of the main challenges from this project was to design themed obstacles from concept to manufacture, making deliverables that were both suitable to the theme of the area while being achievable for production. For example, the ‘Spider Walker’ obstacle in the space area was designed in parts to be separated for ease of manufacture and assembly on site. Many of the parts in the space area were also painted with UV reflective paints to give them a futuristic glowing effect when under a UV light.
