Game Research Idea

In my brainstorm for game ideas I explained my three game ideas that I could create for my project. The idea that I have thought is best to go forward with is the Frog jumping game. The frog jumping game is the game I am most interested in making. The main charcter in my hame is Freddie the frog. He is on a lily pad and is jumping from one to the other. He needs as much energy as he can as he has a long journey ahead, so he must try collect as many flies he can wit his tongue. If he falls into the water he will die as the water is dirty with disease (water will appear brown and dirty in the game). as the game goes on it will become harder as the lily pads will get smaller in size making it harder to land on. The current from the water will also make the lily pads move back and forward.
I think from watching the unity tutorials I will be able to make this game successfully.

Possible game mechanics:

 1. The main character-  The main character in my game will be Freddie the frog.

 2. Goals- The goal in my game will be to try and cross the stream safely using the lily pads to cross.

 3. Jumping- Freddie the frog must jump from lily pad to lily pad to cross the stream.

 4.  Rotation system- How Freddie will move, what buttons to press and what direction he will move in.

    Hey Chloe, I think your game is good and games like this have a tendency to do well, are you planning to make levels or making it endless? If you're planning to progressively make it harder levels could be interesting but the best route to go about it would be a continuous game like flappy bird, temple run or subway surfers. You should make the difficulty consistent and instead of people trying to reach a new level they could be beating their high score, good luck in making the game!

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.

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...

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.
