Game Design Document

Game Design Document


The game design document will keep me on track and help me figure out things while creating my game. This document was easy to write and I understand more of what my game will be and what steps I need to take in order to start creating my game.

My thoughts of my game idea keep changing and I have decided to add a planet on the side and possibly some new elements that I have not thought about yet but each week I keep getting more ideas and more designs that I would like to incorporate which I think is great because I am becoming more fascinated and interested about the game. I have thought about adding some levels and if you shoot a certain amount of stars you would reach a level where the stars shoot so quick and its near impossible for you to get the right coloured shooting star making the game more competitive. I am happy for any feedback because I would like to see what people think about my ideas. 

Feel free to check out my document and leave me feedback.

    Hey Milena,
    Again i really enjoyed reading your blog post. I have also used Dundoc too for my Game Design Document, I found it super helpful and I love how it lays it out for you. The GDD is work in progress so record, and document everything on it even when things have changed.
    Good luck with your project.
    Alex.

A picture of me :)  Hi, I'm Milena, nice to meet you. I am 20 years old and I love food, joking, well not really because I do love food but there's more to me than love for food. I can speak three languages, English, Russian and Lithuanian. I came to Ireland when I was five years old and got thrown into junior infants a week later not knowing any English and you probably know how that went. I did a lot of crying for the few first weeks because I could not understand one word anyone was saying to me but then I learned.  This is how to say hello in Russian and Lithuanian.  -Russian:  Привет (Pri-vet) Privet -Lithuanian: Labas (La-bas)

Game Vision Statement

Projects: Vision Statement vision idea/design document     A vision idea/design document is created to present a plan that you have for your game. In this document, I will be expressing my idea of the game. I have decided that I am very interested in the game that would be called “Shooting stars”. I had game ideas like "shoot the starfish", shoot rings onto a big starfish, or shooting bubbles but I like the sound of shooting stars. The name "shooting stars" reminds me of the night, calmness, and overall peace. This game is all about relaxing your mind and destressing but also could be a challenge. The game genre is shooting.  The gameplay starts of with a beautiful dark night sky, some relaxing music playing in the background, and possibly some sound effects of shooting stars like some “SWOOSH” sounds or any other sounds that "shooting stars" could make. At the bottom of the screen, there is a shooter or a shooting station. The shooting station would have ...

Game Design

Game Design Public domain license Link to image Game design seems hard yet after reading a few articles you soon realised how easy it can be to design and create a game. In my mind to create a game you have to be a genius with all of the knowledge of coding but after reading a post by Angela He" From Zero to Game Designer: how to start building video games even if you don’t have any experience"  you realise that in order to create a game all you need to have is an  idea, information about what kind of game you want it to be and the purpose, characters, some experience playing games, and some passion.   After reading the class reading task I realise you can create a game by drawing a simple line on a paper and dividing it into sections forming a challenge for the character. The next step is to choose a character and the enemy for example I chose an apple as the main character and a girl as the enemy. The apple runs away from the girl because the girl loves apples and there...
