This proposal outlines a comedic space-themed video game where the player controls an astronaut fighting galactic sharks. The purpose is to entertain audiences with an over-the-top parody of retro arcade space games. The target audience is boys aged 10 to 13 who will enjoy the violence without being too young. Elements of tone and premises from classic space games will be incorporated in the final production through research and planning. Copyright infringement is avoided by the game's non-serious, parodic nature based on retro genres.

game is made up of over the top nonsense - thus can't be take serious.
