2. Style Sheet
This is my colour theme for ‘Escaper’. The
background colour will be black. I chose this
background to be this specific colour. This mainly
because many old school retro games have a black
background. All the colours which I have chosen will
stand out with this background colour. The brighter
colours will be the objects and the characters in the
game. I will have the shoots in orange as it stands
out and its more life like. The Enemies will be the
Negative colours like red. Where as the playable
characters will be either blue or yellow.
3. Style Sheet
These are enemies from many retro games. I want
my enemy to stand out so I will take inspiration
from these characters but also make it my original
idea.

8. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
Loosing a Memory Stick Always keep a Back up I would send an
email to myself after each lesson so I know
I wont loose my work.
Not saving your work Always save my work half way through my
lesson and right at the end. If I do a little
test on my document and then decide I
don’t like it, I can refer back to my
previously saved document.
Computer Crashes Save my work half way through. If the
computer crashes I still have some work
saved from that lesson.
Press a button on Photoshop and it not
save any of your work and goes back to
your last saved work.
Don’t press the button and instead save
your work before doing something you don’t
know what it does.
Shortage of computers in the room. Go to the library or another room to carry
on with my work.
9. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
Headaches Take breaks as necessary also drink water
if needed.
Arm and Elbow Aches Take Breaks if needed, no slouching and
have your fingers above the keyboard so it
doesn’t damage your body.
Eye Strain Take regular breaks and make sure the
brightness is not too high on your computer.
Electric Shock Do not touch any equipment which looks
faulty. Always report it to your tutor.
Drinks spilled (Fizzy) Don’t have any drinks anywhere the
computers. If a drink is spilled tell your tutor
right away.
