My name is Sam Cox and I am a games student @ WSA in Winchester. I have been making games in Unity since 2021 and sometimes in Unreal since 2022. I like to make short games and action games. Outside of games, I like music. Peanut Butter is my favourite type of food. For this module, I will be working on making a Games Design Document. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Idea #1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started off this project by coming up with an idea for this project. I had been given an idea generator in class. Firstly, I came up with an adjective that used the first letter of my name, secondly, the genre would be my birth month, thirdly, my setting would be my birthday date. I used some birth months from family members, and I used those to come up with an idea that sounded appealing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-1024x724.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-1536x1085.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1-850x601.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Idea-Generation.1-1.jpeg 1684w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Artstyle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want to focus on the stylish look part above. On the idea generator, I landed on the idea to make a <em>stylish<\/em> theme park game. One of the things I had been interested in over the summer was a TV cartoon called Mixels, that had this interesting art style. I&#8217;ve linked the first episode below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Coconapple - LEGO Mixels - Episode 1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/99NH7qoJl_4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had tried to replicate this art style in the summer without any success, so when I landed on doing a stylish game, I immediately thought of incorporating this art style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions (Lens)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was also given a series of questions, or lens, about my game. I used these to make some notes about my idea and what I want the player to experience with my idea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-1024x724.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-1536x1085.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1-850x601.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.1.jpeg 1684w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-1024x724.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-1536x1085.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2-850x601.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.2.jpeg 1684w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"724\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-1024x724.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-1024x724.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-300x212.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-768x543.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-1536x1085.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3-850x601.jpeg 850w, https:\/\/sites.wsagames.com\/sc18g23\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2024\/09\/Week-1-Research.3.jpeg 1684w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Personal Introduction.
