Syoban Action

The main goal for Syoban Action is to make it to the other side of the map without dying. The obstacles are the enemies and the map itself. The main reward is successfully making it across the map. This game plays with the expectations of platformers by flipping every logical thought that most players have with a baited trick that could lead the player to their doom. This game is still a platformer though. I think it’s making a comment on just how much less difficult video games have become. It was a bit refreshing to see how difficult this game was. It wasn’t as annoying as I thought it would be. It kept me alert.

I was trapped
I hit my head on one of the hidden blocks and fell to my doom

Platforms and Scenery

I had a few ideas that I wanted for the scenery of my game. The clouds was used to make the player feel like they were high in the sky.

The floating platforms are a reminder to the player just how high they are.

The sun and moon are used to make the player feel that the environment they’re in is weird since they can see more than one sun and moon at the same time.

Obstacles and Rewards

I had 3 different obstacles and 3 different rewards in mind for my game. I thought these different ideas would be very interesting to see in my game.

This broccoli was a reward for players who managed to get one.
This tomato was an obstacle for any players who got near it.
This carrot was going to be an obstacle as a spike of some sort.
This crown was going to be a reward for players if they managed to attain it at the end of the level.
I wanted to trick and bait players who weren’t very cautious by using the environment as an obstacle. Some things in the map may or may not be dangerous to step in.

Mid-Term

Dark Legacy is about a cuboid named Dark Boxy who must collect the 30 Jade Coins to prevent his world from dying. However, there are those who would dare stand in his way, known as the Sidewinders.

And yes, I made Dark Boxy’s death animation purposefully graphic, because I’m a bit of an edgelord.

Midterm Project – Wendigold

The name of my game is “Wendigold” it is about a mythological creature that hunts for gems in the woods.

This is my start menu. The title is off center for the time being but I plan on returning later to fix it.
This is the green gem. My game will include a variety of gems that give different boosts to the player.
These floating rocks are an example of one of the different platforms that will be featured in my game. In some cases the player will have to hop onto tree branches in order to reach them.

Midterm

The first game I created called “Robo’s Land”. This game represents a Robo walking on the dark-platform theme. He came to the dark dimension to finish the level. Watch out for those enemies, but if you squish them, will disappear.

Obstacles and Rewards

Potential obstacle sketches

Here I designed potentially for the game. One is an evil demon, the other an angel because I thought it would fit for an angel to be the natural enemy of our ghost protagonist, the other a reaper to eliminate the ghost’s spirit.

Potential rewards sketches

One reward could be a soul which the ghost collects to make himself human again.

The other is a ghost coin which would be the currency in the supernatural landscape the player travels in.

Obstacles and Rewards

I imagine the game set in the middle of a desperate battle. Same as my character, the enemy will also have tanks and other war machines.

One of the game’s goal is to rescue friendly soldiers that are wounded. I took inspiration from the movie “Fury.” There is a scene where a squad of tanks uses the body of their tank to cover infantry to safe places.
