LO4: Final Game Concept pitch

LO4: Game Concept Pitch

Arnie Dillo

This is a simple platform game based around an Armadillo called Arnold. In this game you go underground or overground as you save small creatures from the death traps left by the evil mastermind 'Bob the Cat'.

Most of my other concepts were made around what I would play, because it's maybe a little bit quirky or just something generic about it. But then I kind of thought about what my little sisters would both play because one of them is really in to Barbie and Princesses and the other is more interested in Football and Pokemon. So my mind turned to the games that momentarily prevented me from killing my brother when I was younger and the main game that stood out was Crash Bandicoot. The game was simple and I loved it and after I recently began to play on the PS2 again I discovered that I love the game just as much now as I did then. So I wanted a game that you would kind of remember as a child, one that was simple but still fun.

I think the best possible hardware for this game is handheld game consoles such as the Nintendo 3DS or Playstation Vita.

The target audience for this game would be young children because it is relatively simple to play and has characters that would appeal to that target audience.

This game would be a platform/ adventure.

The two main competitors in this genre are obviously Super Mario Bros. and Sonic the Hedgehog, but I think that Rayman is also a very important competitor in this market particularly after 'Rayman Legends' which received critical acclaim.

Concept 1

My  first concept is an unconventional shooter called 'QUITS', in this game you play a worker at a DIY store who has had enough and ready to quit. Find your way out of the enormous store before your manager gets to you, you can do this by using things such as glue guns, hedge cutters and other quirky items to get past your awful co-workers and irritating customers.
