Borderlands 2 Character Site
The brief:
As a school project the requirements were
to make a website that focused on a current
interest of mine. It had to be four pages deep
and needed a splash or home page. We were
supposed to show our skills in html and css.
The solution:
This was technically my first ever website. I was really into this
game when we were introduced to the project so I knew I wanted to
make a wiki type of a site that would display background info, trendy
builds for gameplay and info on the character’s power. I went with
the game developer’s knack for quirky dialog and named the site
Borderlands 2 Badass Characters of Badassitude. Inside the game
the most common theme is whether or not you are a “badass.” I
named all of the “popular builds” and I gave most of them funny
names to further push the quirkyness of this game series. I used the
same typeface the game designers used for my heading text and
used screen captures of landscapes from inside the game for the
top-of-page backgrounds. The videos are pulled directly from IGN
articles on the game.
