Week 2

Had tutorials today to discuss our ideas and get them approved. My idea seemed to go down well and it was suggested I proceed with trying to create a prototype of my game. One problem is because I'm using Action Script 3 for its use of raw sound data, I will not be able to have much technical support so it will nearly all be self learning which I don't mind as i want to learn. I will edit my proposal draft into something that's worth handing in over the next week and look into concept art for my game.

Week 1

Starting back this week. I have spent the summer thinking about my Final major Project. Below are some of the ideas thought during in the break

  • I've decided to work with Flash over workign with Unreal. I've decided this as I enjoyed working with flash more than I did Unreal editor. Flash also suits my stregnths.
  • I've decided I want to make a game that ecapsulates the use of music.
  • I am thinking of making a platform game that you play throguh but instead of an end boss you have to complete a guitar hero style song.
  • Will probably set it in space. You play a robot sent to investigate a nebula that is coming towards Earth. This Nebula has been collecting sounds and music from Earth liek a sponge.
  • The platform part will be the player making his her way throguh areas between the nebula, over asteroids and planetary rings etc.
  • The guitar hero bit will be the player advancing throguh the Nebula a bit, collecting sounds as you go.
