The Big Idea: My team's game topic is health related and occur's around diseases spread from undercooked meat and and added a little bit of zombie in there. The most important concept that we want our players to learn is the health issue's and what diseases can be caused if meat is undercooked.
Making Decisions as a Team: My individual ideas from Imagining your game came together as picking out a health related problem and the thoughts of putting zombie's in the game for more disease occurences on the body. My team decided the topic because we just wanted something to go along with since we could have came up with a game for any other topic but we both had idea's around the zombie issue and throwing some undercooked meat in there wich brings us to more health related and disease issues.
Roles & Responsibilities: The process of our game is going a little slow from where this is a new class and all but from the most part we have the idea of almost the whole game already figured out among each other with a bunch of thing like what happen's at the beggining that actually will start the game from the guy getting taken to the hospital from the meat to where he would be in the hospital bed over night and died the next day to being taken as a research project then killing the two scientist who try to get in the cage with him to get samples then after the zombie gets free causing the two people to get infected and they break out leaving you to think of what's going to happen next. I don't think we have a specific role for each of us because we like to get idea's from each other wich could improve our game design on that specific place so I think that we both are preety much taking over the whole thing together not just one person to a specific spot. The way the team works together is we play game's out of school together and can get ideas of the program called ventrilo as we can talk to each other from it to give idea's,etc.
Research: The kind of research that we did went into to express the game topic was random site's about health issue's to diseases and a fun little zombie site that give's you answers to zombie question's in wich we thought that a health and disease topic could easily make a game around having zombie's in it and everybody know's that people like to shoot zombie's here and there.
The User Experience: The gameplay of the game will end up being a survival game in a hospital as you are a remaining surviver from the outbreak that happned when the guy who died from undercooked came in that night but as you progress through the game you will have a question here and there to answer especially when your going to end up moving into a next area if you answer the question right then you can move on to finding ammo crates for your gun's or even a ally since you think that you are the only person left alive and you have given up hope but yet you still try to get out of the hospital and what happen's when you get a question wrong you will have to survive in the closed off area for a limited amount of time against waves of zombie's with the remaining ammo that you may have so always keep in mind to try and be conservative and save ammo incase you get in a situation like that but we will end up giving you a fighting ability in wich you can use ur fist,etc but that is way more risky then trying to just shoot them especially when there is swarm's of them coming at you after or if you survive the room another question will come up and hopefully you can get it right so that you can move on and not get stuck with nothing as I mentioned earlier a question will come up in a certain amount of time when you are closed off like that to try and get you out. Some of the idea's in this game have changed while we have had the time to make on it because I am still getting more idea's as we come along with the game to improve it and the reason why is to change some features and possibly make some thing's graphic and another reason to why is me and my partner have creative minds with alot of different thing's and just have many thing's that we could add.
Mastering Flash: The only flash resources that we have really used is the wiki and the video's from the globaloria people who are kind enough to put up video's to help out but as I am home back in the day's I used to make sprites,animated graphic,etc with other program's but it has been so long that I forgotten what program's I had on my computer for that the way I located the resources for those was a good friend of mine who I worked with from time to time I was even a Admin of a Final Fantasy site as all these resources we had I think that they have helped in ways of bringing some thought's back and giving idea's along with people making video's about what to do.
Overcoming Challenges: The curriculum topic has been most difficult for me so far would have to be alot of the flash features because when I made sprites and all those animated graphics I had other program's than flash the same thing for being an Admin of a site they didn't just use flash they had the program's for sprite's wich got me in there preety easy and I know Final Fantasy very well but that don't get you up to the rank of Admin and have control of feature's of the site and I overcame the difficulty of some of this curriculum because of my team and teacher who has used flash a little more then me but I still have knowledge of flash just maybe not as much as other's would have.
