At the beginning of Phase 2, I selected one theme from Phase 1 to develop further and I chose Sea Monsters. This was one of the two themes I was most interested in, and it also received the most positive feedback and engagement from my peers following my presentation. I felt confident that the theme still had a lot of unexplored potential, with many aspects I had either not researched in depth or not explored at all.
Throughout Phase 2, my research focused on the following areas:
• Real-world sea monsters
• Bioluminescence
• Existing game concepts
Below are links to the research conducted for each topic, along with the sources used.
Similar to Phase 1, I also had to present this research to my peers which you can read about below:
