Project week 3: Game Brainstorming
Gamestorming
other blog posts, I'm not that equated to games. So I had to do some
research just to see what was possible with Unity. This really helped with the brainstorming process, having an idea of
what was possible gave me a clear view of what I might base my project
on.
Idea One,
My first idea is to create an escape room. An escape room is
My first idea is to create an escape room. An escape room is
basically a game where you try to escape a room or any space through
clues. You usually have to complete a number of tasks to escape.
I searched if that was possible through Unity and found this video on Youtube. I brainstormed some ideas such as basing my rooms in a
shopping centre closed for the night. I feel that would give me
flexibility with themes for the rooms. I could have a room in a
fitness shop with sport themed tasks. I could then have a room in
the canteen with food based tasks.
Idea two,
My second idea would be more aesthetic focused. A game where you
have to jump from podium to podium. Something similar to this, I would
focus on the visuals and have it be a calming game rather than a high
alert game.
Idea three,
My third idea was a dark room where you aim to fill a map. Something
simple like a firefly has to collect pieces that mark areas of the map.
Idea four,
My fourth idea was a race kind of concept. The aim of the game would
be to reach the top of a mountain. The player would incline the
mountain and have to move left and right to catch gems to build
momentum. I think this would be an easier goal to achieve as I've
seen racing as a concepts for many Unity games like This one.

Hey Samira,
ReplyDeleteFor someone who isn't well acquainted with video games, you have some really unique and interesting ideas that would work so well within a game. Your third idea is really something, the lighting mechanic would work so well with a character like a firefly to luminate the map.
There could be something really interesting if you try a blend it with your aesthetic idea, you might create something beautiful!
In any case, I think you're onto some really interesting ideas across the board, and regardless of your gaming experience, I know you have the ability to create an awesome game, I can't wait to see what you come up with!
