P1 - Games Proposal - Week 1 & 2

Games Proposal - Project 1

Week 1 (20/09) - Game Idea / Preparing for Pitch Presentation

In the first week, we had to pick which type of project we wanted to do, so I chose ‘One-Input’ and the first few ideas I had was to make something similar to Geometry Dash, Surviving High School, Mega Jump, Cut The Rope or Where’s My Water? since I played those titles quite a lot on my iPhone.

After watching some gameplay for some of them I decided to make something similar to Mega Jump. The game has been discontinued from both Apple Store and Google Play, so people aren’t able to play it anymore.

Mega Jump was released in 2010 and with it being quite popular when it came out, they decided to release its second version ‘Mega Jump 2’ which was released in 2013. The game stopped getting updates in 2015, so users aren’t able to download it anymore which is why I wanted to make something similar to it, but add a twist to it like boss fights at the end of each level. 

Week 2 (27/09) - Pitch Presentation

In week two I had to put together a pitch PowerPoint presentation for my tutors about which category I was going to do from the brief which I chose ‘One-Input’ and what type of game I was making.

Below are screenshots of some of the slides from my PowerPoint explaining my game idea, which references I have used and how the first level would be.

'' In this game, the player will use the mouse to go left or right. The objective is for the player to keep collecting coins, and jumping on enemies or obstacles to keep going up. If the player misses any of those it will be game over.''
