1. Proposal
Working Title
EBORACHUM
Initial idea
Video game with an evolution of a city so it is kind of like CIV but with a single
city and I am planning on adding tower defence and idle games reference. Of
course the game will be based around York and its history and the new problems
posed as the city evolved or devolved, for example the Black Death.
Rationale
I am going to try something new that I have only done very small amounts of
before I am going to try making the concept art for the game I have been trying
to explain and make it look visually appealing to most audiences, I am trying to
appeal to and I will have to make a decent HUD for a phone game, which also has
to feel neat and tidy, tucked away to the side I will also have to make menus
which are comprehensive and then I will have to create some sort of way to
show the evolution of the city as creating different designs for the different kinds
of people who were in charge of the city and also change the defences design
when the story progresses such as the roman design and the Viking designs
would be different. The other sort of thing I was going to include was a sort of
side quest system where random people whether they are peasants or nobles
have quests and they give you for completing them important resources, to
either upgrade your defences or the town.
Audience
My primary audience will be female because they enjoy spending time with in
the city and to an extent quite a few of them play videogames also they make up
the majority of the population with in York My primary age will be 16-24/ young
adults, because that is also the group that enjoys to play video games also they
enjoy being out in the city with friends. My primary class will be upper middle
class as they are mainly the sort of people you see wandering about the city sight
seeing and according to the demographics I found they also enjoy video games
not the most but they still enjoy them. My primary Psychographic Socially
Conscious Type A because they actually care about the world around them and
they would also most likely have a positive reaction towards the product given to
them, however I don’t know whether or not they would be to into video games
and that sort of thing.
My Secondary Audience will be Male because a majority of males play
videogames and enjoy them and they also enjoy spending time with people in the
city and they are also my secondary audience because they are in the minority in
York only just though. My secondary age for my audience will be 25-44/ adults,
as you can usually find this age group wherever you go in York also they are the
second best age group for video games. My secondary class audience will be
2. middle class because there is a big difference between upper and middle class
and there is a very small gap between upper middle class and middle class and
thus the demographic pretty much stays the same so all the information from the
primary audience. My secondary psychographic will be the Belonger because
they are part of the community in the York area they will be interested in new
things and would probably try to back it up if it is any good.
Evaluation
I am going to keep a log on what I create and how I create it throughout the
production and I will also note down issues I run into during the production
