Genre
The genre I am going for is a horror, action, survival story-based game like Resident Evil.
Target audience
The target audience my game will be aimed at is 16-25 as it is a horror story driven game that will have violence, blood, gore and mature language. It is mostly aimed at men as the protagonist is a male however females can also play the game if they want to as some enemies will be female.
Game Idea
My game idea is about a detective on an investigation as there have been a lot of cases of people being possessed, granting them supernatural powers and becoming mindless beings. The enemies are the supernatural beings that detective will be facing using his gun that he brought along. The detective’s goal is to find out what is causing these people to become mindless beings with supernatural powers. However, the detective gets infected so you must find a way to escape
Key game mechanic’s
The key game mechanics for this game will be shooting a gun and the movement of the character as it will be a first-person game that will be fighting waves of these supernatural beings. The character will also be able to pick different weapons along the way and upgrade them with points earned which can be earned through killing these supernatural beings. Also, you can pick up med kits and bandages that you can find which can heal you depending on which one you use. There will be a time limit as you are infected and must escape before you die.
The elements that made the game good was the story as it was heavily driven by the narrative and story elements which made the game good. Also, the characters and their goal and backgrounds were interesting which drove the story forward as there it’s a emotional rollercoaster.
The roles needed to make the game was the script for the dialogue and narrative. Also, the landscape and environment design as the last of us world is set in a post-apocalyptic time. Character designs of how the characters look like and final design and the zombies. Also, they used motion capture and actors to play the role and drive the narrative. Animation team is used to create the effects of the guns the character movements and cutscenes.
One thing that could make the game better is to make it longer.
The ethical issues that some people may not like is that there is a child that fights and kills also a child turns into a zombie which some may find disturbing. Also, animals dying. Also, there is a lot of violence and gore which some may find disturbing.
