1. Initial Plans
Patrick Colman

2. Initial Reaction
• Due to being limited to a 2 dimensional plane I think I will make rather a
overhead game where the top of the sprite is visible, or a side scrolling
game where the character moves along left and right.
• An idea I have is a over the top game similar to the original X-com games.
• I Think it would be good to try a larger game resolution to last to add more
detail and make it bigger.
• I take a lot of time and put sometimes too much detail into the animation
and background, however this makes my work more detailed and quality
over quantity.
• I feel like I am better at making exaggerated art style over realistic
therefore I think I will look for more cartoony games.

6. Mood Board Analysis
Most of the images I have collected are mainly opaque colours and are
dull and less vibrant than other games. This is because most of the RTS
and other genres of games are serious in tone and do not have cartoon
based graphics. This also lines in with the mood of all of these games
that are a dark and gritty tone making the player feel more immersed.
There is a lot of brown and green colours repetitively used this is
because the games are mainly outside and in barren areas and contain
a large amount of flora. The units and structures in the screenshots are
all further away from the camera and at a birds eye point of view.
This will influence my final product by showing me the types of colours
that are most common for top town games and what is proved to be
effective in this type of genres. In addition the mood board showed me
that many games colour schemes while are consistent throughout
game play can change with different stages or areas to add contrast as
seen in X-com.
