Nova Concepts and Story Refinement

ROBOT STUDIES
Did some Studies of Female Robots and what features makes them look feminine. I noticed that there are more round shapes (the eyes are oval) and softer shapes.




HELMET STUDIES
I looked at a variety of helmets (space helmets and biker helmets) and the tried to apply them both to some of my designs


NOVAS VOS STORY
I talked to my classmate Leighton and Frans, and they helped me fill in the gaps of my story a bit.

The machine Nox was sent to the planet in parts: one part being the arms and the other the rest. The machine evolved and put itself together. It was sent to the planet to terraform it, the temples are perhaps either testing labs where the machines tested on the animals (?) or put them into tubes/jars to be tested on. The machine started to malfunction and killed most of the animals instead, maybe the NOX has been on the planet for so long that it is part of the planet ?), things growing on it. 
The reptile-creature found a way inside one of the labs (the plants grew inside the door, opening it slightly). The player follows the creature which opens the door for you. The creature had been hiding inside there and that's why the machine couldn't detect it.
Perhaps the creature lights up at night and the puzzles inside the labs makes the player work together with the creature as they have to order it where to stand in order to move forward and to see in the darkness.
 At the end, Nova realizes that NOX is just like her, broken. She decides to re-program it with a new purpose: restore life on planet. It travels to the labs and takes the tubes of the animals and creates new life again. -Robots are better than humans-
