Day 2ish: Hey Why is that building Red!??!?!?!?

Hey! Its another Day and Another feature of Mirror's Edge! Well Today I'm gonna talk about the use of colours in Mirror's Edge!

If you've seen some gameplay of Mirror's Edge you've might have noticed that almost every single building and object is WHITE. Well that is a choice made by the developers as to portray the city as a Clean,Urban and Peaceful City as its spotlessly white and the real reason is to contrast with the other colours featured in the game.

The White City

In the Previous entry I've mentioned that there isn't or barely a HUD(Head's Up Display) in Mirror's Edge, its due to the use of contrast between white and other colours. Other colours in this game is used to highlight objects or places of interest.  Since this game game is kinda like a "Race" it helps to tell you where you're suppose to go. Red is used the most in the game as it is the most vibrant colour out of the others. 

Note: The Contrast between White and the other Colours

Other colours like Green,Yellow,Blue and Orange are used too but its not really used as much as red or really used for objects/places of interest.So When the game wants to tell you that you should grab onto a poll or climb this box or slide down the zip-line it would be coloured red so you'll know that you should use that to continue. 

The enemies of the game are coloured black which further makes them stand out from the white city which helps when you speed around the area, picking them one by one.
