Task 4

Xbox & PlayStation Game

Age: 7+
(Little Violence)

We have decided to design a game for over 7 year old's. We have gone with a Candy/cute theme where the object of the game is to get away from sticky hands which want to eat your candy friends and your character whom you may create out of varies types of candies and sweets. You have to reach the Gum-ball palace in time in order to warn the Queen and save the Kandy Kingdom.

Plot:

The Game's main objective is to get to Gumball palace in order to warn the Queen that the humans are coming to eat the candy and snack kingdom. The villains in the game are gone off sweets and fruits which try to contaminate your little characters and tasty friends. Cutlery and rotten vegetables are also the enemies which try to stop your character from reaching their goal to go to the castle and defeat the evil hand.

Character Concepts:

The presets created by Charlotte 

You can choose from 8 preset characters or design your own with different sweets and fruits. The characters themselves are children and are based off Disney's 'Wreck it Ralph'. When designing your character you can choose the gender, face profile, eyes, colour of hair and eyes, hair styles and what type of sweet or fruit they are. The presets have their own names after fruits and candies, we decided to use fruits and vegetables as well to help teach kids that they can be just like the candies.

The concept of Queen Lollipop is based of the Bubblegum Princess from Adventure time since she has pastel colours and she has a sweet and innocent feel to her. I used very light colours for her dress and hair since her personality which reflects this and she matches the roll of the Queen of a candy world. The colours are very random which matches the candy like feel where the colours are random and there is lots of sweets within her concept to match her role.

Her role in the game is to be in the cutscenes and the front box since she needs to be rescued from her palace from the evil hand and rotten fruit and vegetables.

Environment 

The environment is based on Willy Wonka's chocolate factory in the respect that everything is edible and it's full of bright colours. The environment can be interactive to a point that objects can be picked up and used within the game.
