The document outlines pre-production plans for a game, including font and color choices, initial level layout designs, and required resources and software. The first layout depicts an upward-scrolling desert level made in Photoshop using the Chalkduster font. The second layout shows a different colored setting with added bushes. A schedule is provided to complete base elements, characters, levels, and a final boss over 8 days using Photoshop.

1. Pre-Production

2. Style sheet
Adobe Caslon Pro Bold
Avenir Black Oblique
Britannic Bold
Chalkduster
Myriad Pro Semibold
Copperplate Gothic Bold
I chose these fonts because I think in my opinion
will suite my game just incase I need text in it. I will
of course have text in it because I will have
instructions of how to play it and a starter screen
with the title of the game. I will probably chose
between two fonts to put into my game. I want a
nice and simple font that will suite a adventurous
game at a title or game speech.
I chose these colors mainly because of my stages
and levels. I want different color schemed levels so
each level is different in its own way. All the stages
will have different names that will refer to a color.
For example if I had the level Green Hill Zone I
would include the color green and colors that are
good with the color green like blue and brown.

3. Layout 1
This is my first layout that I had to draw out. This is a
test drawing of a level I might make on Photoshop. I
went for a level that goes upwards instead of going left
to right like a Mario game. Obviously the levels will
have colour so this will be a desert like level with sandy
areas with sandy themed features. Other levels will
have there own features and structure.
The font I will use will be Chalkduster which is a
decent font for a game. I think for a game like this a
font that looks hand-drawn is good for a title and
writing at the top of screens. When the level is
completed text will come up and say that you’ve
passed that stage, hopefully. I will ad some more
features to the level when it comes to making it
properly otherwise it ill just look like a boring level with
nothing in it. I want something in different parts of the
level so it’s challenging.

4. Layout 2
This is my second layout, however this might get used in my
game because of how good I actually made it. Besides that I
chose different colours so it changes the setting of the game and
is now in a different area. This is better when the game is
different instead of all the same because it adds something
better than just the same boring background. I added the
bushes so it doesn’t look like an empty level. This might be the
second stage of the game where the player progresses further
to the end, however I’m not sure on the order as of yet.
