Archive 13 Concept & Prototypes

Game Concept

Below is a brief GDD-style PDF of the game concept I came up with through my research. It contains the genre, platform, target audience, overview and core gameplay loops.


Game Loops

Moving on from the game concept to prototyping, I decided to make visual mock-ups of the four game loops in this game.


Prototypes

For prototyping I was originally going to use Powerpoint, however I wanted to use something built to prototype without having to code at this stage as Powerpoint can be quite confusing with button features.

Instead I used an online tool called Figma which was relatively easy to use. It’s similar to Twine but with UI instead of just purely text.
