Greetings,
As a new month rolls on do to does the Game Design Folio - Tower City
I'm pleased to showcase the many highlights of this months hard work on the project. So lets get started. :)
Video
Tower City's second video log is now online. Titled "The Game pitch." It elaborates what the concept behind the Tower City is. Coming in at under 5 minutes to watch, this video is designed to give you a general overview of a component of the game and in this case the game in a nutshell.
Audio is a little soft spoken, you may need to turn up you're speakers.
- Tower City video log 2 - Quick and Easy to access.
Design Docs
If you want to know more about Tower City after watching the video logs then I present to you this months written & detailed design documentation.
- Game Concept Overview : The game pitch so to speak, gives a general overview of the story and features that'll be encountered in Tower City.
- Player Control : A document elaborating on how player movement and interaction with the game world is handled.
- Camera Design : A detailed explanation into the rule sets presented out for the game camera and how it affects the games design and construction.
Work Journals
A week by week journal detailing my experiences and what was done on that week towards the project.
Work Journals can be found here.
Prototype
At the start of April I decided that, in order to showcase the validity of the design documentation I'd strive to assemble a team of talented Indies to create a game demo for Tower City. While we don't have much to show right now in way of content we're dedicated to creating a polished, fun-to-play vertical slice demo of Tower City.
The Prototype Main page can be found here.
Why are you doing this?
This Project is an endeavour to create a polished and high quality design folio to present to perspective employers who are looking for a create, passionate Level and Gameplay designer. If you'd like to know more about the man behind the project please visit the "About Me" web page.
