Week 4-Project

 Game Idea Research 



From my brainstorm that I have done last week I have now been thinking about type of game I want to make based on all the ideas I made from the brainstorm Ideas that I came up last week and I think I want to make a 2D plat-former type of game, because I believe i'll will have a very enjoyable process when designer the game which is very important that's why it took me a while to pick which idea I wanted to do because one of my ideas was making a zombie fps game but then I realised how hard that's going to be especially with me that has very little game design knowledge.

The second reason is because when I was younger I did play a handful of 2D games especially on my DS lite when that was a thing so it would be pretty cool to make a 2D plat-former game.

I really want to have the plat-former aspect as one of my game mechanics for this game the movements would be kind of similar to super Mario.

The second game mechanic would be that I'm going to have  the player to collect coins they would be scattered around the map like in Mario or in Sonic.

The third game mechanic would be that the player would be able to attack enemy's via by sword or maybe using a gun like in mega man I don't know for sure yet but I would like a mechanic were the player is able to fight off enemy's.

    Hi David, your game idea sounds interesting and different. I would like to see how this turns out in the end, I used to play a lot of these type of games when I was younger too and even thinking of them brings back some good memories. Best of luck with the rest of the semester and creating your game.

  “Is video game addiction real?” Why was it made? The aim of this particular study is to look at the longer terms and impact when it comes to people that have a particular relationship with video games and how playing video games for a period of time can do to a person over time   , in this article it was based off of a six year study, the longest study ever done on video game addiction, and It’s very rare    it’s also found that 90% of gamers do not play in a way that is harmful or causes negative long term consequences and it’s actually a significant minority , though it’s still very bad because of how people can get truly addicted to video games and as a result can suffer mentally, socially and behaviorally. Start of his journey  In the first story of this article it was about a guy named Charlie Bracke and he was just a normal guy that was playing video games since he was young at the age of 5   , he was playing old 2D games and many others, In his teenage years he become more obs

Reading week 3-Game design

 Reading week 3-Game design What is a game anyway?:  Reading this made me see that theres to just calling a "game" a game because theres a lot more stuff going into making a game, at first when I saw the article I didn't want to read it because I thought most of it would just be common sense, but then I read the Critical Vocabulary section which made me laugh because what is said was true when we describe a new game to someone, one of the ways we do it is by describing them from other games like this game is basically a downgraded Grand Theft Auto or this game is a mix of Call of duty and Rainbow six siege, and it's not an accurate answer at all because the game most likely doesn't even play like the games we would describe it's like, it's a pretty vague and not a very detailed answer, but most people that play games for a while would understand it, but then I was thinking of the point of view of someone that doesn't play games and how would they diges

Week 5-Project

  Game vision statement  Game genre: The game genre that I will be choosing from a serious of options like shooters, action adventure and role playing games I was having a hard time in thinking what type of game I wanted because when ever I get told a project and we have all the power to make it anyone I want I get and have so many different ideas in my head it gets too much sometimes and I had to realise that I was only new to game development so all the complex and cool features that I wanted for my game would be very difficult so I went for one of the simpler routes and chose to make a plat-former game. Gameplay: The gameplay for the plat-former was going to be similar to how super Mario gameplay is because one I liked super Mario so it would be fun to make a game similar to it and Mega man another plat-former just like Mario but instead of just jumping around just like in Mario, Mega man has a shooting aspect in the game, so I know that I'm definitely going to have coin collect
