Unit 1 assignment 3

Game Research

This presentation will present the results from my research and explain how this information will help me develop my concept art sketches and final product.

Types of research

I have done primary research such as interviews and surveys asking the people what they thought so I could develop my sketches, I have used this so and I also used secondary information such as surveys. I only used interviews and surveys for my primary research because I feel that using a questionnaire would not be as effective because this is quantitative data. I used surveys in my secondary research because for this Iwill not be using this data as much.

Mindmap & Moodboard

I have this image of an ancient warrior because I want my character to look like this, only a little similar.

I thought of the throwing knife because it is a weapon that has a long range, that will come in handy because he could easily throw them from a distance.

I added a picture of a wild bear because that is the enemy of the game.

I initially wanted to have my ancient warrior in an old kingdom but that was to basic an I wanted a original idea

I got my idea of a throwing knife because when I was looking for a long range weapon I saw gun and throwing knife and it would be strange if you saw ancient warrior having a gun!

Game Research

Your game research slides should go on this section with a slide where you explain how this research has helped to inform your game idea and the choice of items/ characters and environments you will sketch.

Questionnaire

Present the results of your questionnaire over the next few slides. You must have a pie chart for each question and explain how this data has helped you to develop your game idea and how it has helped you develop your initial concept art sketches.

what art style should I use for a war/fighting game?

The results have shown that is should use exaggeration. These results helped me change what was previously going to do

I asked this question so that I could know about what art style would best suit my game

questionnaire

The results have shown me that most people that I questioned liked an ambiguous story line over a exiting story line.

I asked my peers this question so that I could get their perspective on what type of storyline they would of most enjoyed

Questionnaire question 1&2

The first 2 questions relate to my game and I took the results to change my game for the better. For example on question 2 it asks do you like a story with an exiting story line or an ambiguous story line.

what types of color schemes should I use for my game?

I was already going to use a monochromatic colour scheme so that it looked more professional but now I am assured I should.

I asked this question so that I could see what colour scheme would be most popular amongst my peers.

questionnaire

The results have shown that that most people think that I should have the sword as the primary weapon. I think the reason that they choose the sword is because it makes more sense to use that in a old war/fighting game.

I asked this question so that I could see what weapon would be most popular amongst my peers.

Where do you think is a suitable location for a war/fighting game

to take place?

I've noticed that most of the people that I interviewed said that the country side is the most suitable location for me to have my game setting, although these results are not

I asked this question so that I could see what location/background scene would be most popular amongst my peers.

Conclusion

all this data has helped me develop my game because I used something from most of the games and included some of my original ideas – I will sketch a throwing knife , a deserted forest and an ancient warrior ; leaving the mystery of how he got there open to the individual player.

Graphical Style Exaggeration

Game Research: Evaluation #2

Naruto Shippūden is a complex game that looks very simple, with the bright colours the game looks like a child friendly game.

It uses exaggeration because it is a fighting game made for the younger generations so a punch will be exaggerated. The affects of this is good because it makes it more child friendly without having to make the game simpler.
