Masters plan

So in my own mind I needed to continuously summarize down my ideas and even though I feel like im repeating myself it helps put it solidly in my head so here is my idea and plan for the next nine months!

---------------------------------------------------

I will be creating a trailer for a co-op side scrolling 2D beat’em up with an animated 3D environment for the purpose of showing to companies as a pitched game idea

A dark force has crushed all the planets in a universe together to create a new dark world,

The strongest souls have been protected by the light (god basically) and told they must defeat the darkness to get there planets back!

The player will select from a small amount of characters, then play through the characters home environment, all twisted and dark, to then progress through to another players environment where they will traverse then fight the player from that environment to unlock them as playable

Once defeated the player can then select any of these characters to play as in later levels or return to old ones to use unique abilities to collect secrets

Each player will battle enemies they once would call friends due to the darkness eg woodland hunter would battle darkness controlled wolves etc

The Game

• World level select section
• Use player’s abilities to gather secrets
•  USP – cash in collected secrets to unlock more levels
• Special 3D moves
• Defined character artstyle
• Health, stamina bars (HUD)
•   Unique moves for each player

The Trailer

• League of Legends displayed characters
•  Gameplay/level example
• Game Logo
• Character select screen
•  Narrative explanation possibly animated in 2D
•  Environmental kills
•  8 – 12 characters
•  9 – 13 environments
• Music for each character 
• Intended platform release

      Possible Issues

-          Building levels and animating in 3D

-          Time consuming

-          Little knowledge of animating

      A panning of the level will be recorded and animations will be added on top then all placed together for the trailer, this means there will be at least three renders of the same footage will may lead to a serious loss in image quality..
