Candidate Name Charlie Harrison
Pathway Game Development
Project Title Final Major Project
Section 1:  Rationale (approx. 150 words)
Through my game design course  at college I have learnt  many skills, in the first year of doing this, I learned the basics of programming in unity but this has given me the confidence to know that if I would go to a different software I could also learn the basics which I found out that was true when I started the second year using unreal and I picked that up pretty fast, also in the first year, I learned how to make basic 3d models in 3ds MAX also furthering my skills in the second year learning how to animate in 3ds MAX. Furthermore, in the second year, I have learned in 3ds max to unwrap 3d models to make it easier to texture. I have also made a 3d level environment in Unreal Engine use all these skills I have been learning for the past two year and I think it turned out really good and now I plan to make 2d game inspired from the game I have made in my first year.
Section 2: Project Concept (approx. 200 words)
The way I have come up with my project concepts is by doing some research and making a power point presentation, I did look at other games for  inspiration and these are what I came up with,

My first idea was a turn based strategy game the theme would be steampunk and you would move on a hexagon grid and move by rolling a 6 side dice. And the level idea is that you will make your way through a science lab you will have monster chasing you, I think I will have pick that you can use to kill the monster or have tapes or interactive with thing you can use to slow them down or kill them.

My next idea was an action-adventure survival horror the theme is could be many things as you are a young boy that is in a nightmare and each night (level) You are in a different nightmare you need to escape. So, he can overcome his fears.

My final idea is a Strategy Card Game, This game  theme is space, Story would be that you trapped on a spaceship with alien and you need to escape, the why it would play is that you make a deck of card that holds thing like movement and power ups.

Section 3: Evaluation (approx. 150 words)
They way I will be evaluating my work is by doing a weekly type up of what I have done that week talking about what I think went well and what I think I could of done better at, I also will be also making smart targets to set a day goal and keep to it so helps me to keep on track, I will also be using Trello to track my work and to see what I have done and what needs to be done, I also plan to you this to track what I did when so when it comes to my weekly type up I can easy see what I did and did not finish that week making it easy for my weakly evaluations, Trello is also useful tool to see if I’m falling behind in certain subject Eg, Programming, artwork or design and research and I thinking I will also use Trello to track my reflection to make sure that I do one a reflection each week.
Proposed Research Sources and Bibliography (Harvard Format)                
Trello this will be used to help me manage my time and help me look back to see what work I did it on what week.
