Generated from: Wide landscape game background: the shabby reception hall of a run-down time-travel agency. A worn reception desk with a bell, towering grey filing cabinets stuffed with overflowing folders, a humming circular time-gate portal set into the back wall glowing softly, a row of wall clocks all showing different wrong times, a small framed "employee of the month" portrait hanging crooked, a sad potted plant, teetering stacks of paperwork, 1970s office furniture and linoleum floor. ART DIRECTION: European graphic-novel illustration. Bold confident hand-inked black outlines of varying weight, muted desaturated palette of slate grey, olive, dusty ochre and faded blue, cross-hatching for shadows, ligne claire clarity with moody noir lighting. The portal is the only saturated light source, casting cyan rim light across the room. Printed comic album feel, slight paper grain. Clean uncluttered centre and lower area so game interface can overlay. No text, no letters, no logos, no watermark, no people.
