Game Design Document

3D ball


For this week we started to create our Game Design Document where we place and share the important information about our game. The reading task that we did this week was very helpful to me as well because it gave me an idea of how to start the document.

Here is the link to my Game Design Document. I only use Word Document to do my Game Design Document because I feel more comfortable using it and I also think that it makes the document looks neater and easy to find information. However, my Game Design Document is not fully complete because it does not contain any images and audios at the moment. I will also make some changes along the way. 

I hope that you will enjoy reading my Game Design Document and feel free to comment on what you think about it!

    Hi, Flosie!!
    I really like your idea of a puzzle/maze that is surrounded by grass and hedges. I like that I don't necessarily would need to use the keyboard, that a can use my mouse.
    I was wondering if there will be a mode where the player can play without a timer?
    What if for the Hidden Treasures you give the player two “cards” in each one would be additional time and the other more collectable coins, but the player doesn't know each one contains what? What if for the sound you add nature sound, like wind, birds singing, ...?
    Best of luck with your game creation!

    Hi, Flosie!!
    The reading task that we did also helped me but I was still very confused and questioning myself if I was doing the right thing hahaha
    I used Dundoc for my GDD, it has a template and explains what each section mean, it helped me a lot hihihi
    Good luck with the rest of the semester!

    Hi Flosie, I just read your game design document and I like that you thought of adding a time limit to the game, its a good idea to let the player decide if they want to use a timer or not, I'm sure a timer will give the player more of a challenge while playing your game. I think the forest theme really suits your maze game idea. The variety of rewards that a player can collect in the game is really great, especially the one that adds additional time for the player to complete the game. Anyway I wish you luck with your game, I'm sure it'll be great :)

Introduction to a future Animator 😁

If you've been reading my blog post since the day I started, you have read my first introduction. However, I haven't really talked about myself. So in this post, I will along with questions from the tasks we have given. 😁 My photo from last year First of all my name is Flosie Jane Sazon, I am currently a 2nd-year student studying Creative Digital Media at the  Technological University of Dublin located in Blanchardstown Campus. I'm 20 years old (even though I don't look my age 😂) and I have been living in Ireland since I was 13. This course wasn't actually my first choice even though I love art. My first choice was something about business and language which was way different from what I'm doing now, but I'm really happy that I'm doing what I love. Even though there were a lot of times convincing my parents but everything went well in the end.😂😂 What was the best class you took last semester? why? Even though I enjoyed Web Development and Design Proc...

Game Idea Research

Maze  Inspiration Last week, I started to collect some game ideas and talk about what we like about them. However this week, we have to choose on out of all the game ideas we picked. The game that I decided to do is similar to "Roller Splat!" but in 3D instead because that is the type of game we are learning in Unity. I think that it will be helpful as I can utilize the skills that I learned from the tutorials to my project instead of studying another type of game. I will have more time to develop my game better if I stick to 3D style as well. Choosing this type of game is also a good starter, especially for people who want to make a game for the first time like me. My game will also be played in a first person point of view means that the camera of will be placed at the back following the ball inside the maze. While doing my secondary research, I find countless of game tutorials on YouTube that are related to the idea I am going for. Most of them are also made in Unity which...

Exploring Game Design

Inspiration image about discovering new things We started this week's tasks by reading articles about defining what a game is to a more detail and in depth explanations.  I used to define "game" as one or multiple players who works together to complete certain tasks with a set of rules that they must follow whether they win or lose. However if I put more thoughts into it, the definition gets more profound and brings me more in depth about what a game truly is. As I read though the first article that was talking about particular definitions of what a game is depending on how much interaction they have with it. For example, the more interest they have about games the more knowledge they can share with people. There is an interpretation from the article that I like based on a book called "Rules of Play" by Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman. They explained that games are a "system in which players engage in an artificial, defined by rules, that results in a quanti...
