The main focus point of my project is animal testing. I want to transform the animal body to mechanize. Players will be able to use the game console to control the character. Which allows a player to climb and jump inside the animal’s body and find the way out. This game is very suitable for players aged between 17 to 40. It’s very suitable for people who like to explore and pursue excitement. I want to make a 3D adventure game; player can control the operation keys from the game console. My main purpose is to show a different gaming world. I want to create a new type of game that no one has mentioned before. Through this game, I will show my creative thoughts and ability to use lighting, special effects, and 3D Modelling.
I get a lot of inspiration from my research. The first game that affected me is the “Transform game”. This game turns locomotives into a combat robot. It reminds me of the transformation of machines and creatures. After that, I found Nicolas Ridous’s illustration. It reminds me to systemized the operation of the object. Then I collage some magazine papers, it makes me want to reorganize these mechanical parts and become a new object. Later, I searched for some mechanical animals and building block animals with my partner. Among them, the biggest inspiration for me is the game “Demo.” I was inspired by the game environment and atmosphere. This reminds me of the fear and despair that people feel in a dark environment and facing unknown creatures. After doing all this researches. I reorganize the mechanical parts and recombine them. The mechanical parts will become the internal structure of the animal.
I want to show my game in Maya to explore my ideas. I will use Maya modeling and create the characters. First, I sketch the models in Photoshop, then I build the models in Maya. After that, I searched for the materials to add colors to my objects. In addition, I will make a PDF about my game concept. This PDF will include all the information I have done so far. For instance, this document will include primary and secondary research, game background information, timetable, game rules, game concept, and research.
In this project, I will explain the operation process of the game and the basic appearance of the game. In addition, I will also write about the rules, background, and main goals of the game. This game will be a success if it can be successfully operated. I think the game I designed can be used by the game console. The players control the actions of the characters through the game console. The projector plays the game screen. Players can turn on the projector to play the games at any time.
After the game is completed, I think I will be more certain of my professional direction. I hope my future can develop towards game design. What I want is to innovate and break the previous game limit. If I have the opportunity, I hope to be able o make games that simulate the real environment and higher technology game products.
