Game Elements

Reading Week 3

https://acagamic.com/courses/intro-to-game-design/the-formal-systems-of-games-and-game-design-atoms/

Reading the articles this week and diving deeper into what makes a game made me wonder how much work and thought out planning goes into making a game. How do I have to think about how to make the game more engaging for the player or audience. How important it is to make sure to have my research done and to make a prototype to get started. As I start to break down my ideas I understand how important it is to not only set out a basic layout and start the game but a strong enough foundation where I can just pick and choose and tidy up along the way.

Introduction Of Me{Week2}

Introducing Me! Hello, My name is Ciara Meegan, I am 20 year's old and I love food, sports and gaming. When I was 5 years old my Dad tried to get me into basketball but I wasn't a fan at first, so my parents tried football, Gaelic, camogie, tennis, swimming, volleyball even hockey for a bit but I was not happy playing them sports. Until one day in primary school, they were making a basketball team and I just said I'll go for it and see what happens, I showed up and it turns out I was really good at it like it made me happy, I then became the team captain and finally found something that stuck to me and my dad was very proud about, as he played and was captain for the Irish basketball team in his youth. So competitive family and we are always striving for the best in everything, My mother is the same she didn't have a sport she stuck with but was good at anything and everything.  Photo from Ciara Meegan{Taken in Belnamadena, Spain our holidays before Covid-19 was a thing

Game Vision Statement

 Game Vision Statement (https://www.feedough.com/vision-statement/) Game Genre: The game genre I had in mind would be a classic Jumping game in a way like Mario Brothers. Where the game is focused on the main character which will be a dog and there wont be any blood or some gruel stuff but there will be some obstacles and the cats will try and stop the dog. Another word for this would be a platformer game. As these games mainly focus on the obstacle inftont of you and how to get from the ground to the platform. (https://inthelobby.medium.com/it-is-super-marios-3d-world-and-we-re-just-living-in-it-151e099a1122)  An idea of what I would like to do and to replace the characters with dogs and cats instead Gameplay : The gameplay depends on the graphics and how the game goes out as well as the sound effects I am planning on using my own sound effects to make the game more original.  My game centres around the main character named Gordo who is a husky dog trying to get home, but has obstacle

Favourite Game(Week 2)Task 3

 My Favourite Video Game Destiny 2 on Steamstore.steampowered.com My Favourite video game is called Destiny 2, the game was first released on September 6, 2017. the game is a massively multiplayer game and uses a first-person shooter. In my opinion, this game is the best lore type game out there, I admit I wasn't into it at first but then I really got into it once I followed the storyline and the backgrounds of the characters. You start your journey by waking up in an abandoned area but are awoken by a "ghost" who is your light companion and can revive you and respawn you as long as it lives. You were chosen by the "Traveller" who is the bearer of the light and chose you to become a Guardian who protects those from evil and the darkness. The game is more fun to play with friends as you can play more PVP games and complete raids and come together and do the season content as well.  I first started to get into games when my Father would play them at night when he
