Idea 1

Game Name – Artificial’s and Intelligence

My first idea is a First person shooter. For this idea I will be specializing in programming and am going to be using the unreal engine because I am more confident with programming than I am in any other section of games development. The player (Kyle Lewis nicknamed Slash) will have some futuristic cyberpunk themed weapons that they will use to destroy the androids that have taken over the city. The player will be placed in a dystopian Cyber city Where androids have taken over and most human life has been eradicated. The player will be a survivor that is in a resistance group called The Cyber Coup (The CC) . The player will be tasked with sweeping through a high rise estate and will have to clear out the area of rogue androids and make the area safe for their group to be able to hold up in and survive the coming years of the cyber apocalypse. 

 

Idea 2

Game Name : Cyber Driver

My second idea is going to be a Racing game. For this idea I am going to be specializing in programming and using the Unreal engine as this is the area in games development that I feel most comfortable and i feel as though my ability’s outweigh those in other area’s. The aim of this game will be simple get from Point A to B first or under a time limit. The player will be put in futuristic car or motorcycle and will have to race to the AI opposition to the finish line, or will have to complete challenges like timer’s, or they have to go through gateways, or have to escape enemies that are pursuing them for some reason, Other obstacles/Challenges may also be added such as Vehicular Weapons and elimination stages creating a championship feel to the game.

Idea 3

Game Name : Cyber Scroller

For my third idea I am going to create a 2D side scrolling beat em’ up game. For this Idea I would be specializing in programming and would be using the Unity engine because i feel as though my skills in creating 2D games are better with the unity engine rather than the unreal engine and unreal is primarily used for 3D games. For this game the player would be placed in a 2D Cyberpunk styled city and they would have to fight through waves of androids and robots that are trying to stop them from completing their goal. The player could have different goals depending on the mission that they are doing for example one of the tasks could be get from point A to point B in under 2 minuets killing as many enemies as possible.

 

 

Final Idea

The Idea that i am going to go forward and create using the unreal engine is Idea 2 “Cyber Driver”. I am going to create this game because I have never attempted to create a game that involves vehicles before and I am interested to see how it will turn out and what features I am going to be able to add to the game. I believe that creating this game may be slightly ambitious as I have never attempted to create a vehicle and I am not sure that I am going to have enough time to complete this game in the given time although i am going to try as I think it will be an enjoyable experience and challenge.

 

Here is a mood board that I created using (pinterest.co.uk) on the theme of Cyber punk race tracks. It features ideas from different Cyberpunk/scifi race tracks from multiple games that I have research one of these games is the Wipe out series (Wipeout Omega collection in particular) and concept art that people have made and uploaded. I have chosen these pictures because I feel as though they resemble the track that i am wanting to create more than others I have found. This mood board is going to help me to generate ideas for how the track that the player is going to be racing on when they are playing the game.

 

Here is a moodboard that I created using (pinterest.co.uk) on the theme of Cyber punk Vehicles. It consists of different designs of: Hover Cars, Motorbikes, Hover bikes, Cars, Disc bikes and more.  Most of the vehicles in this mind map have some sort of hovering or flying feature with a lot of neon lights. Most of the cars are sleek and thin. there are also a  lot of different motorbike designs and concepts. Most of the pictures are concept art although a few are models and photos of real things. This mood board is going to help me when I am looking for a model to use for my Game as I would like it to be as cyberpunk as it can be.

 

Here is a moodboard that I created using (pinterest.co.uk) on the theme of Cyber punk Buildings. It consists of multiple designs of different styled houses, skyscrapers, slums and other buildings that make up the cyber punk cities. Most of the buildings in this moodboard are very tall skyscrapers brightly lit with neon lights. There are also multiple designs of slum like areas and back alleyways that are fairly dark and any light that there is is mainly pink and blue. This moodboard is going to be helpful when i am going to be creating the background landscape to the game as I would like it to be set in a cyberpunk city that the players are driving through.

 

Here is a moodboard that I created using (pinterest.co.uk) on the theme of UE4 Tutorials. it consists of multiple different tutorials for different thing you can do in UE4, for example there are tutorials for creating Fps games, tutorials for AI, Tutorials for particle effects like fire and muzzle flash. I like these tutorials because they are easy to follow and understand teach step in each tutorial. I am going to be using these tutorials to help me when I begin to create my game as i am still unsure on how to do certain things in UE4.
