The document outlines Harry Morton's initial plans for a game project for 16-19 year olds. Harry proposes two initial game ideas: a side-scrolling cyborg ninja game set in a dystopian future where the player must shut down a killer robot facility, and a top-down plane shooter where the player survives waves of enemies to earn upgrades. The document also includes mind maps, a mood board analyzing dark and colorful visual styles, and a schedule laying out the 5-week production process including research, planning, development, and evaluation.

1. Initial Plans
Harry Morton

2. Initial Reaction
• My Initial Reaction of the brief is that I have to make a game
for the age range of 16-19 year olds. My Initial idea when I
heard this was a side scroller game set in a dystopian future
were you plays as a cyborg ninja which is armed with a sword
and you have to shut down a facility which creates killer
robots. Another Initial idea I had was a top down shooter
were you plays as a plane and you have to survive endless
waves of enemies and each wave you complete you get a
upgrade point which you can spend on getting better
weapons and armour for your plane so you can survive longer.

8. Mood Board Analysis
Is there any repetition in the images you have collected?
Repeated colours/images styles/fonts/tone/mood
There is a repeat in colours with dark greys and blacks but also some bright
colours are common as well like purples and blues. The is also a repeat in
mood as well which is sad and depressing. There is also repetition of image
style which is a person looking into massive building which are dark but have
some bright colours as well.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
My mood will influence the style and look of my final product
because I am basing the style and look off these images.
