After a lot of thinking and play through we decided to redesign the game. We will stil make
use of 80% of our already created prototype but we will add new thinks.
-The changes are as follow:
-The storyline(see below)
-The player now controls a Ufo
-The player can upgrade/Collect Ufo ships instead of carts
-The graphics style may change as well as the GUI
-Much more fitted assets and Props
-Dynamic levels
-Much more fine details
StoryLine
A colony of Aliens decide to invade earth and destroy its existence. The player does this
in the first/few stages. In the midst of destroying our planet a unique alien(player) falls
in love with one of his victims(a Girl). The love for each other makes him realize his
mistakes and he turns his lazers to his own kind. The player then moves through stages
destroying the aliens that are killing humans. The player gets rewarded for this
throughout. At later stages there might be small changes to the storyline and a final
ending when the player finishes the game.
The reason for this change is that after we had tested and played our game it was dull and
pointless. We now have a more clear vision of what we want and will continue the game.
Planning in progress!
If you have an idea to add please tell us ;).
I’m going to make a new thread soon and will delete this one.
(old idea)
Former Carts and Gems
Carts and Gems is a 2D game where the player controls a cart on the bottom of
the screen and aim’s to the upper screen, then launches objects to collect
gems or to create chain reactions that will also collect gems for you. The
game has a few levels and each level has 8 stages. The stages will get harder
as the player progresses in the game. The carts can be upgraded and new ones
can be bought in the game with the gems you have collected. Each level has a
record the player can set and beating this record may also add as a reward. I
am currently creating this game on my own. I would admit its a little big for
my skills but definitely not impossible. I will post updates here on my game.
Please comment on the screenshots and suggestions please!
