Secondary Environmental Research
The island above is a private Island within the Caribbean, my environment has taken inspiration from this as it will be surrounded on all sides by water and has a dense forest area.

I have taken inspiration from the 2 images above as my game environment will have either small ruins or little scattered villages around the map with the forest and coast.
Also you will be able to explore the different areas on my Island in first person.

Another source which I recieved my inspiration from was the TV series Lost in which the story behind the concept of my game environment is the same as the character has been shipwrecked all alone and must find a way off.
Primary Research
I have gathered from my survey that 100% of the people who answered, have played a survival game at one point or another. Also one of the most favorite aspects that people liked was the unique environments in survival games and the variety of interactive objects. On question 4 they were asked 'What would you say is an interesting scenario to be in?' in which 50% responded with similar answers which involved either getting shipwrecked or a plane crash.
