Week 1 Pitches (History)

Our team came up with two different game pitches this week.

The first idea was a side scrolling 2.5D  platformer called Subject 52. The player would pause the game and give game objects a path to move along, and when the player unpaused the objects would start moving in that direction. The player would use this mechanic to solve puzzles and advance through the levels.

The second idea was for a realistic 3D survival horror game called The Unseen. It would take place in a dark environment where the player would have to avoid being seen by a monster, which would be attracted to sound. If the player made too much sound while moving or running, it would attract the monster. The player could ideally use objects to distract the monster, and sneak past him.

We sent off both pitches to Professor Diefenbach, and received feedback that both ideas needed to be refined.
