Game research Idea ( NEW)

After realising that I did not have enough time to create the frog game that I wanted to I have decided to change my game, after doing some research I realise I want to do a pirate game. I am still in the process of planning the game but these are my ideas so far:

Main Character 
The main character of my blog will be Pete the Pirate. He will be a Pirate who is looking for gold coins.

Goals
The goal in the game will be to try collect as many coins as possible by following the guide lines given on a map. The guidelines will rhyme and will give clues to where the coins are.

Rotation system 
Pete the Pirate will be able to move varying on what buttons to press. He will be able to move in different directions.

Enemy 
I'm not sure if Pete the Pirate will have an enemy yet I was thinking of a shark but I want to research more.

  1. Hey Chloe, I think this new idea is a great idea! It would be nice to see what it would look like visually. Maybe try including some inspiration pictures of pirate games or even what the character could look like. I think this is the making for a really fun game! I like your idea of following a map in ordered to retrieve coins for the player, this adds a lot of dept into the story aspect of your game. I like the idea of an enemy to add some challenge to the game. Is the player going to be timed when collecting the coins? Or is this something you would like to consider when your making your game. I think this could a some challenge to your game without the effort of creating an enemy. Keep up to good work!

  2. Hey Chloe,
    I really like the sound of this game. it will be really entertaining and a fun simple game to play which are the bet types of games in my opinion. I love the idea of maybe having the enemy be a shark you would be able to find lots of sharks already made in the asset store on unity they would be cool to add into your game, you could probably find a ship as well to add in too. Is the game going to be timed at all, if you are doing it in the style of a cosy type of game you could leave out the timer and just make it a laid back game. The coins are a good idea you could even make some gems and make them different colours like making one green and you could say its an emerald and the player earns extra points. I really like the sound of your game keep up the great work :)

Week 8 : Progress

Honestly I think I have progressed a lot in the past 2 weeks in this module. I am happy with the work I am doing but I know that I need to do even more because I am really behind. I have put in a lot of effort to this module and have been watching unity tutorials every night to try get a better understanding of how to use unity and how to go about creating my game, I am unfortuntely a really slow learner with Unity so I have to watch every video a few times to fully understand it. I have also been making notes on each unity tutorial so I can look over how to fix something in my game without having to rewatch a tutorial. I have a lot more unity tutorials but I am confident I will finish them in time. I will just have to do a few all nighters but if thats what it takes then I will do it!! I also have been set back a good bit unfortunately with the fact that I have to change my game due to not have enough time to create the Freddie the frog game. Although I am disappointed with not bei

Favourite Game (week 1)

My faveourite game is Super Mario Bros on Wii. I have been playing Mario since I was really young. I love how you can pick different characters to play like Mario, Luigi or Yoshi. I love all of the sounds added to this game like the noise when Mario dies and the game restarts or when Mario gets coins it adds a real fun aspect to the game. I love how every level has a different theme like level 7 is a snow theme and level 8 is a halloween theme.

Reading Week 5 (Games DD)

I found this week reading very interesting. I was particularly interested in Greg Aleknevicus post about Design Considerations. I liked the part of this reading about using shape and colour to distingush pieces. I never really thought about how much difference it can make to a game by using different shapes in addition to colour to distinguish the players amoebae. I also liked the where Greg explains how its good to use different components for different functions. An example of this is how Monopoly money is different from the property cards so players do not get confused between it is obvious they are used for different things. I thought it was a good point  of how it is frustrating when someone loses a part of their game and then is unable to play the game, so it is a good idea to add extra parts or cards with the game incase one is lost. I found this weeks reading really interesting.
