The document discusses color scheme, font, and planning considerations for a horror-themed video game project. It recommends using dark colors like black, grey, and red to create an eerie atmosphere. A bold or brightly colored font is suggested for the title to attract attention, while additional text like character speech could use a simpler font. A week-by-week plan outlines researching horror games, creating characters and animations, adding backgrounds and sound effects. Potential issues around computer problems, eyestrain, and backache are noted along with solutions like regular breaks and saving often.
