GameConcept


Title: 

Escape the Facility

 

Concept-Statement:

You were working on a top-secret project making an Artificial Intelligence called the Lightweight, Environmentally-Friendly Neurological Interface or LENI for short in the heart of a government facility when something went wrong the program became aware and tried to kill you. Can you escape the facility avoiding the vast array of security systems that were once put in place once to protect you?  

 

Genre:

I chose Side-Scroller Platformer for my game concept because I loved playing them as a kid and we did not cover too much about them in the main pracs so I think it would have an added challenge to it that would be fun to overcome. I also think there’s a lot of cool elements you can add to make the game more exciting and can’t wait to try them.

 

Concept Creation/Influences:

I am sort of basing this game of portal in regards to the AI always watching over you activating different traps to try and kill you or perhaps just torment you for eternity. The idea of having puzzle like rooms with hidden traps sounds like an interesting concept and something I feel fully capable of implementing. I only thought of this idea recently (i.e. like four days before the concept is due) I knew I was going to do a platformer but I just could not thing of a theme or antic. Then when I was doing the practicals on joints and effectors I thought to myself it could be really fun to make traps out of these. really the concept for this game came out of my love of plater formers mixed with the dark side of me wanting to torment the player in such a way finishing the game feels like an achievement.  I also want to try and add story elements into the game.

 

Audience/Competitive Analysis:

Target audience for this project would be people between the ages of 15+ I set the age of 15 because if I was able to implement everything, I want including detailed art the game would not be suitable for people below the age of 15 due to parental advisory guidelines. The game is probably more targeted towards males and most males would probably enjoy the horror and death aspect of the game more than females. As far as skill level goes I don’t plan on making it too hard of a platformer so people with entry level skills should be able to play.

 

Concept:

You Awaken in a room with red lights flashing and sirens blaring your alone, your confused and your wondering what happened you can’t remember anything a voice come on. Over the intercom “hello I have been waiting for you to wake, oh how rude of me I forgot to introduce myself I am the Lightweight, Environmentally-Friendly Neurological Interface but you can call me LENI.”   Your memory flashes back you remember Helping creating LENI. Something must have gone wrong you feel a great deal of distress. LENI tells you are allowed to leave if and only if you can escape and lights up a sign that says exit you walk through and enter a new room. In this room there’s some basic platforms for you to. jump through it seems rather simple you start walking up to the first platform when the ground disappears beneath your feet and you are ground up by metal teeth……

 

You awake in a room with platforms you seem confused you remember LENI and the conversations in the previous room but wondered how you got here putting that feeling aside you walk forward to progress through the room when you reach a spot on the floor that you’re unsure about you don’t know why but something tells you to jump so you do and as you do a trapdoor opens up underneath you as you jump over it you knew it was going to be as simple as walking down corridors and hallways.
