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.

  1. 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!

Game Design Reading Week 2

  Designing games by Tynan Sylvester After completing the reading assigned to us for Week 2 I have learnt a lot of new things I did not know before.  When I read the first piece we were given "Don't be a Vididiot"by Greg Crositkyan http://www.costik.com/vidiot.html . He explained gaming in a really simple way which I liked as I am not very familiar of the different types of games. He explained how a game is a play activity with rules that involves a conflict.  Then I read another post called "The essence of Eurostyle gaming" by  Lewis Pulsipher  http://www.thegamesjournal.com/articles/Essence.shtml  , . Before reading this I had never even heard of a "eurostyle" game. I then read the post and got a better understand of what makes a game a eurostyle game.  Euro games have great visual interest, simple rules, no player elimination and the game does not take more than an hour to play. Reading this article gave me a better understanding of different ga...

Reading Week 10

I found this weeks reading week to be really good and interesting. I am really not good at taking critisism so it was nice to read an article about the positive sides of criticism. I like what he said how about how when giving criticism its good to concentrate on the things people can improve on rather then point out all the things they did wrong. He also said the main thing to concentrate on criticism and feedback is that its not unbiased and that factual. I like how part of the article he gives examples on the difference between good criticism and bad criticism.
