Vlog (It's Timmy's fault)

Visual Storytelling Durr!!!!

     The use of visuals will greatly enhance our game and draw more interest into it.  I hope they will look clear enough to distinguish.  It will probably turn out better than i think but I've been wrong before.  Visuals usually are the drawing point because people are more attracted to sight. It'll be hard but we'll come out victorious or something like that.

Planning my game, Dawg?!

      In the game Timmy and i share, we plan to create a Greek mythos inspired game of gods versus titans.  We are planning to have a horizontal field with two opposing Parthenon like buildings from which your units spawn.  Your building is what you are to defend.  The opposing building is your primary objective.  You must destroy it before they destroy yours.  You play as a god ,which you can choose, and you compete against a titan, determined at random.  The process is arduous and loathsome but totally possible.  We have creative differences but nobody is going to agree on everything.  I like the direction we are heading though, to a successful completion.

Blog De Paper Prototype

       The paper prototype helped me visualize my project with higher precision.  The direction in which we are going is now more defined and clear.  When written out like how Timmy and I did, helped us grasp our concept.  It forecasts some of our differences about the way the game should be played.  We have, and will, make compromises on the content and structure of the game.  I'm content with the way this turned out and now I have only optimism for this project. Yeah, that just about sums it up.

Game Idea Yes?

       Our game idea is one shared by Timmy and I. I believe we have gotten off to a decent start. The objective, so far, is to save Greece or whatever your interpretation of saving Greece is by defeating an enemy army and God/Titan.  The player will have a choice between 12 of the Greek gods. Your opponent will be a Titan and will have its own set of unique abilities as will you.This game is still in its infancy so things may change a bit but our overall idea will remain intact.  It will be primarily a strategy game with some trivia here and there. 
       I have a feeling this may be quite a challenge but with help few things are impossible.   I also think that if we can overcome the difficulty we can become more adept at the upcoming assignments in this class.

The one about the topic I chose and stuff.

    I am the Panama and I am Swedish.  I like history, and spend a great deal of time reading about it.  I feel the Amercian Civil War is a pretty pivotal point in American history.  It united the country, for better or worse.  Before our nation was the united States, and now it is known as the United States.  I think that would make a great scene for a game.  I think a story centering on a Confederate guerrilla infiltrating the Union using a sidescrolling action platformer would be awesome.

I am mostly interested in the action games.  My idea isn't quite clear to me yet but has something to do with history.
