Welcome to Quarter 4 of Game Design! Do you need to go back to Quarter 1? Quarter 2? Quarter 3?
Day 136
1. In the final quarter of this class, you are going to create a game that shows what you have learned. You can create any style of video game you like! However, we’re going to plan this out a little more in-depth before we get started. Today create a new game document. In it, write the following:
- Your game’s genre
- Your game’s perspective (platformer, top down, first-person, third-person, etc)
- Your game’s main character
- The object of the game
- The main obstacle the player will encounter
2. You will be able to change these later, but it’s important to make some decisions early and write them down.
Day 137
1. Today list at least 5 game stages/levels in your document. These should include the beginning (make sure you note how/what the player will learn about the game story and objectives), the end (how the player will win/end the game and what happens) and at least 3 ideas for stages or levels in the middle.
