Project Progress

Project Progress Week 6 

This week is all about brainstorming game ideas. I am very interested in creating a "endless runner" type of game where you have to dodge the enemies. 

I was always a fan of Flappy Bird and how you needed to get through the tiny spaces to get further into the game. 

Here I have some ideas of games that I came up with. My favourite one would be a endless runner type of game with a bird of some sorts. I would like the bird to be flying in some sort of sky background with maybe stars, some tress, something else in the background and then some enemies attacking from the front.

Here is an example of a game that I would like to create. The bird as you can see is a character so you could control it with the arrows on your keyboard and the bird would be flying in some sort of sky background with maybe stars or something like that. I would like there to be a different coloured bird as the enemy coming from the other side of the screen and then you would have to dodge those bird or else you will die and then a game over button could appear.

This time around I came up with a game idea really quick and all of the ideas for characters and background just popped up in my head and I loved the idea. I find the 2D game tutorials easier to create so I am excited to continue with this idea.

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 you
