Sweep the torch

Generated from: First-person view from a young man's chest height in a pitch-black forest at night, his own hand gripping a small steel torch that throws a thin cone of light over damp leaf litter and low branches, fog drifting through the beam, faint pairs of small eye-reflections deep between the trunks ahead, the rest of the frame almost entirely black, head tilted as he scans left, no text. Drawn in this game's art direction: Photoreal high-poly 3D render, realistic human proportions and worn everyday materials — scuffed painted metal, wet asphalt, chipped concrete, dusty cotton, damp leaf litter, rusted iron. Night lighting built around one hard handheld flashlight source with deep black falloff, sodium-orange streetlights, cold blue moonlight and drifting fog. Camera like a handheld camcorder, slight wide-angle distortion, subtle sway. Analog VHS treatment throughout: heavy film grain, soft chroma bleed, faint CRT scanlines. Muted desaturated palette of charcoal black, sodium amber, sickly green and dusty brown, with one small red accent. Everything is original: never draw or resemble characters, places or logos from existing games, films or brands (no red-capped plumbers, no famous mascots), even when the idea names one: take a named game's look and mood, never its characters, names or logos. No text, UI, HUD, logos or editor screens inside any image.
