Brainstorming

We started this week with a couple of brainstorm sessions. We covered a lot of ground in this session. We generated and developed ideas. In the brainstorms sessions we discussed different subjects like Story, Kinds of Fun, Perspective, Genre, Theme, setting, MDA and the Core-loop. We documented everything in our game document.

Later on we talked with the teachers about our results. They gave us feedback and we processed their feedback in our game document.

After the meeting we looked at the difficulty of the game and balancing of the games difficulty. We started to think about how we can approach our target audience.  We updated our game document with the new information we gathered. We also did analyze our stakeholder and the clients of the stake holder. To get a better understanding of the people which are eventual targeted with our game.
We documented everything in our Game document. This made our document feel more complete.

Contact with stakeholder

We had a short contact moment with our stakeholder. We mostly got positive feedback and validation for our work.

Presentation

I worked with another team member on the presentation. We gathered all the information from our game document and put it in a PowerPoint presentation.We will use this presentation and present our concept pitch after the holidays.

Art style

I did some minor research on existing games with the chosen art style. Next time I will do more research on how to implement this style of art.

2D isometric character design

How can I create an character in 2D isometric art style? research Like the most researches I do I start with  Available product analysis . I like this method cause it gives me an overview of the already existing products. It also give me some inspiration. I’ve searched for character art in 2D isometric style. I came across a couple of samples. And with the knowledge from the previous weak I’ve started creating my own character. I did adjust the grid size on my view though, cause I needed more details in my character. In the research of last week I found out that creating rounded objects were difficult that why I decided to make a blocky character because of the details. Conclusion: I’ve created a character which suits our design and theme. The character can be seen in the image above. I was planning to upgrade the character design to a more rounded form. But I kind of like this style. So I will discuss this with the group. And if they agree we can keep this blocky character st...

Wrap up

This week is the last week of the industry project for game design and technology. We need to deliver the project and present it to the stake holders.  We will not work to much on the project anymore but we focused on developing the project with the right documentation so our stake holders could eventually develop this game by their own. And we also worked on preparing the presentation.  How can I create an document which allows feature developers to continue our project? I started with looking up what is important in such an document. I came across a couple of documents from the most basic ones to the extreme detailed documents. The advice rapport can be as detailed as one is willing to spend time on it. It also depends on the scope of the project. The bigger the project the more things need to be explained.   I firstly created a document and then filled in the chapters about the graphical parts of the project. Because these were the main focus for me this last ...

Game pitch and 2D isometric art

Image
Research strategies and methods used:   Library Available product analysis Literature study Workshop T utorial Showroom Pitch Game Pitch This week we’ve started the week with a Game pitch. We’ve created the pitch last week. The pitch gave our clients and the teachers an idea of what we are going to build this semester for game design. It describes the main areas of our game. Thanks to the pitch both the teachers as the clients now know what to expect form our project. They also gave us feedback which is an essential part for our development. We’ve applied the feedback in our project. After the pitch we’ve created user stoeries in Devops to work on. I was assigned to make the art for this sprint together with Martijn, another team member. How can we make isometric 2d art for our game? I’ve firstly searched for existing games which use this kind of art style. I found an awful lot of examples, not only games but also other media which use 2d...
