World of Apocalypse
1. Player Experience Goals
The main intention of this world is to communicate anti-war message to visitors.
In this world, visitors will realize miserable results of the global nuclear wars through various tragic scenes such as devastated lands, mutated humans and societies.
Another way of communicating this idea is paradox. In contrast to the tragic environmental setting of this world, the social and politic situations express paradox which is addressed in sarcastic ways.
2. Form
My atlas is a virtual map of the world. It is an interactive kiosk and world map placed at the lobby of the main UN headquarters in 2030. This shows numerous scenes of the world through 3D models and animations. Users can explore various areas in the world through Virtual Tour. Also, this map broadcasts current events in the world and simulates the military and social situations through interactive methods.
3. Table of Contents
* Maps
By the global nuclear wars a few years ago, the world was entirely destroyed. There are various local maps in the atlas which show geographical changes of the world. All maps have multiple layers containing various interesting information
* Pictures
Pictures made with 3D rendering tools like Maya help express the world vividly.
* Culture
The global wars brought about significant changes in culture. Surviving people are intensely compete with each other for limited sources of food. People of countries hardly influenced by the global nuclear wars are brutally ruling refugees from disappeared countries. This fact raise many issues related to culture and politics. Almost all people are mutated by radioactive contamination. In this world, unmutated people are suffering harsh discrimination from mutated people. In my atlas, visitors can appreciate the cultural changes watching various commercials including TV ads and interactive ads made with animation tools.
* Politics
My atlas deals with changes in global politics as well as changes in culture. Lots of technologies were destroyed in the world. So, people have a lot of problems with food supply and medical condition. However, ironically, many countries excessively invest their all money in researching more powerful nuclear weapons to dominate the world. This power game is visually and interactively simulated in my atlas.

The global nuclear wars crucially influenced the ecology of the earth. Lots of organisms has extinguished. Some animals changed their habitats. Also, some animals were mutated or are in progress of horrible mutation. My atlas show the ecology with multi-layered maps and 3D models.
* Religions
In this world, people worship two things: cockroaches, nuclear weapons. To the people in the world, cockroaches mean immortality and nuclear weapon is a kind of absolute beings.
