Possible Colours
Possible Colour Schemes
These colours would be used in terms of
relevancy to the part of the product, for
example the greens may be used more for an
Irish fighter, as the colour of there nation is
green and they may be a patriotic fighter,
such as Conor McGregor, or they may be
used for backgrounds and menu’s.
These colour schemes would be used
throughout the game, firstly in the menu’s, I
chose colours I think can go well together,
but also will stand out from each other and
show a clear scheme, for example the grey
and whites would go together in all of the
schemes, and then the shades of other
colour would go on top of this and stand out,
as well as having different shades of this in
order to show a varied colour scheme that
makes sense, due to the colours going well
with others as they are similar colours, just
different shades.
Style sheet
Pixel Art Style
Possible Fonts
This pixel art style is very similar to how I am going to try
and design my fighters, this being pixel art but detailed
enough to be recognisable in comparison to the real life
people that I am using as characters in my game.
The fonts here would be used depending on relevancy
and how they fit in with other parts of the game, for
example one font could be used for the menu’s, as it
blends well with the colours and layout of the menu, and
another font may be used for the title page, and for the
bold large title to show the games name and branding.

Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
Computer crashes. Save your work regularly.
Corrupted files. Keep backups of your work in different places.
Falling behind on work. Keeping to deadlines.
Sound not working. Rerecord the sounds, or record sounds many
times in the first place in order to have multiple
backups.
Any equipment used breaks,
e.g. sound recorder.
Make sure work is backed up, if not you'll
have to find other equipment and use it to
get the files again.
Use equipment wrong, such as not pressing
record on a sound recorder.
Double check when you start using equipment,
or do it again if you did use it wrong.
Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
Headache. Regulated times on the computers.
Back problems. Sit properly on chair, and have breaks from
working.
Computer overheating. Don’t work on one computer for too long, keep
changing regularly.
Food spilled on a computer. Don’t keep food around a computer.
Drinks spilled on a computer. Don't keep drinks around a computer.
Being on the computer too long. Go for a rest and take breaks from the
computer.
