Prototype Game

Prototype 1 – Creating sample game music

I will create a track that aids the gameplay and gives the user a more immersive experience. I am used to creating music for the hip hop genre but making music for a game such as this will be a different ball game as I’ve never done anything like that before. It will involve the use of synths and drum samples as well as 808 to give the music more of a low end.

Prototype 2- Experimenting in Unity

To begin this prototype I downloaded Unity 3d and Maya as recommended by the IMM students I spoke to and have started designing sketches of the layout of this game. I plan on creating a small rhythm runner game that will be similar to the game I’m trying to create and might even serve as a starting point for the final project. It will only be one level. This will test my proficiency in unity and help me decide what works within the game and what doesn’t so as to make the best final project I can. This game will be made for mac.

Prototype 3 – Kinect Control

and if I’m able to do this in time I’ll try to add the kinect control to the game. As of right now I plan to create a simple hallway that the player has to run through and turn at the right times. The user will just have to decide between turning left or right with hand gestures for the prototype. This will no doubt be the most challenging aspect as it will involve the use of both the kinect camera and unity 3d.
