2. Style sheet
These colours will be used in the place of the toning on white to
toning like metal to like clothing....
These colours will be used for the background (space.)
These colours will be used for the red shades such as things like
hearts/health to lasers (that'll be fired.)
Using a font like this could save me massive amounts of time as it'd save me from having to
make my own pixelated text, so having this font in my final product would save me time.
Using a font like this could benefit the genre of game that I'm making (Sci-Fi.) However,
unlike the pervious font it's not pixelated and has a big possibility of being affected by a low
ratio standard.
3. Layout 1 – Start screen
Every video game needs to have
a start screen to start up the
actual game play.
For mine I've gone with a very
basic/standard layout. As it's an
"over the top" - parody of old,
"retro," - Sci-Fi games it seems
logical to give it this slight
classical look.
The main colour scheme will
most likely cover here with; row
one covering a possibly metallic
logo/title; row two covering the
space background.
4. Layout 2 – Game Play
Now this what the I hope for the
gameplay to look like. After the
"start screen" the player will start
the game by pressing the play
button, causing the game to start
playing out and this will come up.
The astronaut/character will fly
through pace (pursue by the affect
of a scrolling space background,)
as sharks come flying at him/her to
fight in order to survive.
The main colour scheme will most
likely cover here with; row one
covering the astronauts space
suite and the stars; row two
covering the space background;
with row three covering the hearts
and the laser.
6. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
Timing and deadlines. Pre-plan for time and when make sure I don't
leave things to the last second. Also with the
graphics don't overcomplicate things as it'll
consume more time to animate things.
The graphics/art skills may be out of my
skill range.
Look up example art and either; copy the
design detail for detail or copy a similar
design base upon the image.
7. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
From sitting in chair all day this may bring out
back issues from potentially sitting in a weird
positions all day.
A good way to avoid this is by allowing yourself
to take breaks rather than just sit there for a
solid block of time – start till finish.
Getting overly tired and stressed with work... Ensure that you maintain good health, with
getting plenty of sleep and breaks to avoid the
"potential issue."

Editor's Notes
Explore colours, fonts and image styles similar to what you want to produce. Discuss all three elements in relation to why you chose them and where you may use them in your project. Go over as many pages as you need to
Mock up of a potential design using the colours and fonts established in your style sheet and sourced images
