3. Research
• My research was a very big help towards my game as I could
use ideas from existing games and put them into my final
design. The games I researched were already a success. So I
took some of the ideas from them and added them to my
game it would mean my game would be an automatic success.
• A weakness would be that if I took ideas from different games
it would seem like a copy of that game and people would get
bored of the game easily as they will have already played the
other game. When taking ideas from the different games I had
to make sure that they would all fit in with each other and
make the game easy to play without lots of different things
happening.
4. Planning
• The planning was very useful as I could make multiple designs
and not have to worry about the game not flowing and not
working as it wasn't an actual design which allowed me to
explore lots of ideas, helping to make my game very unique
which would help to make my game a success as no will have
played anything like it stopping the factor of the game
becoming tedious.
• I could have made I better plan as it was quite limited and
didn’t reflect my final game as much as I would have liked it
to, if I had made a better game design then I would have been
more experienced when making my final design and it could
have been more detailed and easy to play.
5. Time Management
• I manage my time quite well as I kept to my schedule and spent a good
amount of time preparing to make my final design so that it was a good
detailed game in the end.
• I was able to work fast and effectively when developing my design as it
meant I was able to review my game and check for any problems and
make sure the game was a success
• With more time I could have made a bigger game with a start up screen
which would have made the game overall more detailed and look more
professional. With more time I could have planned more and explored
more existing games making my game better as I would have got more
ideas from games and then I could have ensured my game was unique by
checking to see if there wasn’t a game exactly the same.
6. Technical Qualities
The view if my game is
the same as the existing
game ‘Pac man’ the
birds eye view gives a
full view of the map
which helps the player
to be able to plan a
route and become
strategic when playing
this game.
My game uses brighter
colours than Pac man as it
is designed for younger
players, which means the
colours will be brighter so
it grabs their attention and
means the will enjoy it
more.
The idea of running away
from the enemy is the
same for both games as
Pac man is running away
from the enemy trying to
eat him and the criminal
is running away from
police as the thrill of
being chased excites the
player and forces them
to react fast to what's
happening around them
7. Aesthetic Qualities
I think my work looks
good and presentable
as it is creative and
unique. There are lots
of games that involve
criminals and police
but they're not set out
the same as mine, as
mine is birds eye view
and the criminal is
escaping through the
city.
The forest is a
classic get away
point as it hard to
track people when
they run through a
forest so my game
also shows signs
reality which
players like as they
can feel a sense of
being in the
criminal shoes and
being there in real.
The title is original and has not been used before so it
shows the game is unique and no one will get confused on
which game they're playing making it simple and successful
8. Audience Appeal
The game
relates to my
audience as it
colourful which
my audience
will enjoy as my
audience will
get bored easily
and the colours
help to keep the
attention of the
players.
The thrill of the game will keep the players entertained as the
game is complicating and the player is under pressure to get
away from the police fast without getting caught.
My game isn’t
too difficult as
younger children
will not be able
to complete the
game as the
game is set to
test your
reactions and
strategic abilities
but it is not set
to be impossible
as the players
will get bored
and stop playing.

13. Peer Feedback Summary
• What do you agree with from your peer
feedback?
- I agree with the peer feedback that the colours
and detail is a big part of the game.
• What do you disagree with from your peer
feedback?
- I don’t agree that there should be something
chasing the character as it would make the game to
hard.
14. Peer Feedback Summary
With my peer feedback I would make the game more difficult by
adding a more complex maze into the game which would make the
player have to think more about which route to take, this would make
the game longer and harder for the player which could either make
The game tedious or more enjoyable.
The idea of the criminal being chased would make the game more
realistic but it would make the game very difficult. If the chaser was
slower then it would make it alright for something to chase the
character but it is not necessary.
