Favourite Game

I am here today to talk about my favourite game. My favourite game is "The Last of Us". This game was released on 14th June 2013 on Playstation only. The story starts off with Joel rushing out out of the city with his daughter and his brother because there is a zombie like virus going around and America is in complete chaos. As Joel is about to leave the city he runs into a solider who is ordered to shoot anyone who is trying to leave the city and unfortunately his daughter is shot and ends up dying and the story skips to many years later where Joel is doing risky things to survive and ends up being stuck bringing this girl called Ellie (who supposedly has the cure in her blood) across country to a hospital and they end running into a few bumps along the way. The two end up forming some kind of a father daughter relationship along the way. In the end Joel decides to look after Ellie because if she was left in the hospital they would of killed her and Joel didn't like that sacrifice.

The reason i like this game so much was because from start to finish I was just interested in the story because i am a fan of zombie like material. I thought the writers of the game did a good job of keeping the game players interested at all times by throwing in little jump scares in here and there and even throwing in little shocking and unexpected deaths into the mix. Another reason i liked the game so much is because there was so humorist parts to the story and i think thats important especially with such a serious game.

Introduction

Hello to anyone reading this. My name is Michael Nugent and I am 21 years old from the north of Kildare. Getting into this my best class that I took last semester was either web development or photography. I liked them both because in studio photography we got to use the colleges studio which is pretty decent and we go to do different things with images. To be honest my biggest accomplishment in last semester was passing all my modules and having no repeats. Over the break I didn't really do much because i was broke really. 😅 My favourite tv series has to be 'The Walking Dead'. I love it and have been a big fan since it realised it 2010. I even used to get up early before school to watch it because it came out early in America. When it comes to movies I have so many favourites, like I love the 'Star Wars' franchise and the Harry potter also. I am also a huge fan of Marvel movies. My favourite character would have to be either Iron Man or Spider-man. The best fi...

Game Vision Statement

Hey there, Just here to talk about my game vision statement. The game genre i was going for is like a platform game. My gameplay was going to be where the player spawns on a platform, the player must then jump to the next platform and land on it, if they don't they instantly die from touching the lava. I was thinking of adding that the player will collect a coin or something to buy different types of maps or maybe some different types of outfits. For my games resources i was thinking of having 5-10 different levels all the levels will have a different themes to them, like one level could be a classroom and another could be a house where you start in the kitchen and you need to make it to the roof. This is a link to a similar game  The floor is lava . (Source Pinterest)

Game Brainstorm

Hey there, Just here to give 4 possible game ideas that I could be making over the next few weeks for my own game. The process of thinking of any game is not an easy task for anyone. There are things like what kind of genre do I pick?, how many characters are going to be in the game or even where is it going to be set. My favourite genre would have to be either shooters or sports games like Call of Duty. But at the moment my favourite game would be Mario Kart. So for my first game idea is where there will be either 5-10 levels, each level harder than the next. But the levels will have objectives like having to collect a certain thing like a coin or something but the special item wont be easy to get because there will barriers in the way that can kill you causing re-start the level. Each level will also have a different background, maybe i'll try having moving objects in the background. A game also needs sound effects, like when you collect the item you need to pass the level. It...
