Game Story pg. 9
The child wakes up in a large forest, confused and afraid
They’re in a world they don’t know with anyone in sight
They have the choice to try and return home or to try and explore
If they choose to explore there are many places they can go; the battlefield, the fortress
All paths lead them to the fortress in one way or another
In the fortress, they can explore the different rooms
The armory
The forges
The library
Training areas
Town
Healers
Room of Commarunans and Commarunas
Gardens
Etc.
Throughout the game, they can explore and learn about the guardian race but they also have to be wary of demons and creatures patrolling the area
The child is guided by Runa throughout the game, with warnings and advice
Once the child gets to a certain point, they can enter the maze solve riddles, perhaps fight demons and creatures with artifacts/weapons of the guardians
They will learn these skills from experiences and environments in the game
Once the child defats the monsters and openness the gates, the guardians are free and perhaps the game shows a sequence of videos or images of what happens afterward how the guardians crush the demons and save humanity
Game Inspiration pg. 10-13-this will include (low res images from) model games (consider your early assignment in this class to share your favorite games)
I don’t play many video games, but I do like the video game “Journey” which allows the player to explore the world freely and at their own pace. I also have played a little of Skyrim, and I enjoyed the fantasy theme and environment. For Skyrim, I also enjoyed the level of detail for the environment, and the natural beauty it had.
