The document provides details on the pre-production planning for a game project. It outlines the style guide, including using muted colors for backgrounds and clearly distinguishing characters, enemies, and effects using different colors. It also describes the planned pixel font, character and environment art style inspiration, and color-coding enemies by zone. Additional sections cover the game layout, resources and software needed, contingency planning, health and safety considerations, and an 8-day production schedule.

1. Pre-Production
Your Name

2. Style sheet
I will use greys and other muted
colours for backgrounds and
environments so that characters,
enemies and elemental effects are
clearly visible and easy to
differentiate. For the elements I
am using orange for fire, blue for
water and green for poison.

3. Style sheet
I will use a pixel based font as
default however I will have a setting
that can change the font to
something more standard in case
someone has trouble reading the
pixel font, or simply doesn’t like it.

4. Style sheet
For characters I want something similar to the
image on the left as I think the proportions look
good and it would fit with the game style. For the
environments I want something similar to the
image on the right, I think that the muted colours
allow for the enemies and projectiles to stand
out. Finally I want the enemies to be all sorts of
shapes and sizes that depend on the zone,
however I would like each zone to have a
common colour theme for the enemies.

11. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
I could mess up the size of my sprites and
other assets
I will ensure that all assets are made on the
same scale
I could lose files due to corruption I will ensure that I back my work up in at least
two places preferably three
My computer could break I will try my best to solve problems regarding
my computer as they arise and have files
backed up either on a memory stick or in the
cloud so they can be accessed from other
devices.

12. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
Risk of developing a repetitive strain injury I will ensure that I take regular breaks
Risk of eye strain I will ensure that I take regular break and have
a low screen brightness
Risk of back pain from bad posture I will sit in the chair properly and take regular
breaks
Risk of contracting Covid-19 I will follow social distancing measures, wear a
mask and stay home wherever possible.
