In this background concept, color is used to convey mood for the environments. It plays an important role in creating the overall feeling for the player as they make their way through a game's environment. The pale yellow of the image on top gives the image a dry and arid look, while the cool blues of the bottom image creates the feeling of calm mellowness. The two images would feel completely different if their colors were swapped with one another.

Although there isn't any actual motion occurring in this image, movement is a major element of this piece. Movement is implied in this piece by blurred edges and lines. It creates a dynamic action scene and gives the viewer the feeling that that he or she is looking at a brief moment in time.
