I have been working on a concept for a casual game, this required me to come up with the character, the story and what the game is going to be like. I have produced a character sheet with all the information about him, I did a game concept sheet which included the original proposal and finally i created a working section of the game.

The idea I had been to make a side scroller which required the player to fly through an environment without dying. My original idea was to add in enemies that fire upon the player as well as allowing the player to return fire. These ideas how ever were more difficult than first anticipated, I am relatively new to flash as well as coding and I didn’t anticipate the amount of time I would spend trying to get the smallest detail to work. The character in the game has the ability to move in all directions whilst having the appearance of flying. I did manage to get him to walk and jump but i felt this was unnecessary for my game.

This is a screen shot of it as a whole, I feel I have kept it as basic as possible, this is mainly because I didn’t want to bite of more than I could chew and secondly I didn’t want to start trying to add extra bits in and find my self out of time with something that is unfinished.

One of the major factors I can take away from this is the fact I now have some code which will allow me to go away and have another try, I will also be able to build on what I have done and make games that are a lot more detailed.
