 DEVELOPMENT BLOG WEEK 5 

 

PROGRESS MADE FROM LAST WEEK. 

Following my giantt chart time plan this week was the last week of my research which I followed l conducted secondary research basically writing what it is, different kinds of secondary research as well as its advantages and its disadvantages due to the secondary research as well as the primary research l conducted l  came up with several game idea that incorporated an orange theme. One of my game ideas was of a pharaoh's wife that travels through different time frames from ancient Egypt; medieval times and the stone age fighting different enemies that kidnapped her husband my game idea is a twist of 75 percent of games having a hero to save the prison that locked in a tower or is held captive as leverage . This week l also drafted secondary research on the history of Egypt from its past rulers to the weapons to the kind of clothing the wore as well as what their military wore. 

I also watched YouTube video about creating video games on  flowlab to get an idea on what l would like my video game to look like and what behaviors I would want to be incorporated to my video game.  

 

BREAKTHROUGHS MADE 

The breakthroughs l made was discovering that video about how t l can make the platforms move on flowlab . 

 

ANYTHING THAT I FOUND HARD 

One thing i found hard or rather confusing was conducting the secondary research because l was confused on weather I had to conduct secondary research on every game idea that l came up with as or do l simply use my primary research as well as the generalization of secondary research that I conducted to come with a game idea and not conduct secondary research on the game ideas but then they will be record proof to show the growth or the development of my game idea. 

So to be on the safe side l wrote what secondary research as well conducting secondary research on what makes video games successful, what the most age ranges play video ,what genres are played the most and then l used that information as well as the data I collected from my primary research to come up with my game ideas as well as drafting up mind maps and creating mood boards. 

NEXT WEEK PLAN. 

Next week l plan to use to use the first two days of the week to add more detail to my mindmap as well as to create more mindmaps and moodboards for my other ideas . I also plan on creating a storyboard for my opening scene for my game ideas. Then on the remaining days of the week l plan on following the time plan and actually start the development stage on flowlab while simultaneously watching videos other creators flowlab game creations. I also plan on creating my own game asserts from the background to the characters to enemies to the weapons to tiles on photoshop or on aspirate.

  EXPLANATION OF HOW MY INITIAL IDEAS EVOLVED FROM RESEARCH TO FINALISED CONCEPTS.   My initial idea was inspired by the recent dea th of the rock legend, the prince of darkness Ozzy Osbourne. l wanted to   create a music festival webpage that will be a tribute music festival to Ozzy Osburn music festival to attract rock and metal enthusiasts as well as to attract Ozz y Osborne fans.   However,  after conducting research, I realised  that the majo r ity of the respondents wouldn't atte nd a tribute music festival.  l created a mock-up of what l would like f or it to look like but l soon realised that l wasn't using the feedbac k of my research . l then later came up with a pop music festival that followed the feedback of the primary research which showed that the  majority of the respondents were 18 years old or under which is mainly  students .This led to the concept of a back - t o - school pop music festival that...
