  2. Executive Summary Story You are the Confused lumberjack who sets out to make his fortune, but threw strange coincidence you ends up seeking the truth about your parents death. Told by the townsfolk that the evil rock killed his parents is told by the great tree that this is not true but to find out the truth he must talk to the rock king, but to get to him he must save the tree nymph who will grant passage. In the end you find that his parents were stoned by the townsfolk. gameplay Simple single player, linear adventure game testing the users hand eye coordination, based on animated character with 2 possible weapons to defeat enemies, when the player has felt he/she has amassed enough experience they can attempt to defeat a boss. If the boss is defeated they proceed to the next level. If they die at any point, either amassing levels or fighting boss they die and have to start over, but if they saved (which can be done at any time) they can go back to last time they saved. When defeating the final boss they receive an ending. Development specification Todayi am going to start out working on one of the game engines provided free on the web, making a rapid prototype. This is so i can hopefully make something that is complete and isn’t lacking in any of the features i have mentioned later on threw the document. Futurei would like to port the whole thing into viso-c++ either with Open-gl or DirectX and make the game actually 3D with the. The other possibility is to make use of some of the engines that already do this like Dungeon Siege, and create a mod style game of that, but this wouldn’t allow for the sale of the game.

  3. Product Specification Target Audience The basic jest of the game is simple enough to read and easier to play, essentially killing everything and you win, makes the game easy enough for most ages and since there are not any fancy combinations you have to do, or important items to locate and acquire, just about any age would have been viable. However, since there is going to be some level of animated violence, and the story content is meant for an older age, the age level was increased from 5 to 10+. Any age beyond that would most likely find it similar to things they played as a youth. Game Play Time • All in all you could technically fight the first and last boss while your character is still level one, so technically you could beat it in a short period of time, but in all reality it should take you a few hours, to build up experience and get the good weapons/equipment, so that you can properly defeat the bosses.

  5. Game Specification GamePlay FULL The play of the game is also similar to the game Zelda, possible changes as i actually code the game. If you are unfamiliar with Zelda it is a top down scroll-er with cartoon style graphics, with simple hack and slash fighting. Movement in each screen moves the character on the individual screen and if he moves outside of the screen he enter another map/screen. Attacking is simple 2 button attack normal and secondary, mainly using the keyboard, arrow keys for movement, special key for menu and escape menu to quit. The aim of the game is to kill enemies amassing levels so that the player is able to defeat the bosses and thus further along the plot. Enemies are set on the screen by map placement, and refresh each time player enters that screen, as each enemy is defeated points to the player are awarded and sometimes money for upgrades to player. Some places contain: information to further plot, items to enhance play, or stores to purchase enhancements. The player has a life bar, an weapon bar, money count, and experience points/(points needed for next level). As a player attacks enemies, depending on what weapon, he can do more/less damage to particular enemies. If the player is hit by the enemy (as they chase after him like pac-man ghost) he loses some of his life bar, also dependant on enemy and type of protection, like shield, or armor. If they die at any point, either amassing levels or fighting boss they die and have to start over, but if they saved (which can be done at any time) they can go back to last time they saved. When defeating the final boss they receive an ending.

  6. Game Specification Story FULL Simple is the life of our hero shamis roughneck, a lumberjack by trade, and a fun loving child of 10. Our story takes place in a little land called hoogle-shnoze, and shamis has been raised by himself mostly since his parents were stoned to death by an angry mob. Fortunately for shamus they didn’t feel that the child was deserving of their parents fate. Hiding this fact from shamis by telling him that his parents demise was caused by a lode of shale. The only other thing that has eluded his knowledge is the fact that his is not the only sentient species that cohabitates this place, the others are: the stone, the trees and ore, or for us simpletons, rock paper scissors. Being on his own he sets out to make some more money by going into the deep forest where trees have grown in the wild for centuries and haven’t been touched…and for good reason as he comes to find out. He finds a talking tree that reprimands him for trying to cut him down, and then proceeds to tell him he could give him something more precious than his hide if he goes and saves the tree princess from the evil tree bark who ate her for her powers. After saving the princess you find that he gives shamis truth, by telling him his parents weren’t killed by an avalanche but an group of evil rock people, and to get vengeance he must kill the rockachoo. But once he defeats rochachoo he finds out more truth, that rockachoo, when a little rock was used to kill his parents by the townsfolk he lived with (that is why he went bad, and terrorizes the mountain folk). So the ending show shamis making his way back to town….

Character Bibles Shamis (hero)This is the hero of the story, and the character that you as the player plays, he is no more than 8 years of age, but is well educated in life, since he has been living on his own since he was 5. Since his family lived in the forest he took up the trade of lumber jack, this has made him a strong axe wheeling boy. His parents, unbeknownst to him, were killed by the town folk, but was told that evil rocks killed him (and since he is still a little boy, he believed them).

  12. Game Specification Character Bibles- continued Rockachoo (Last boss/rock boss)Large rock troll who supposedly was the leader of the gang that killed his parents, even though he isn’t he is still a evil and nasty rock beast. His main attack is throwing rocks. Since he does have contacts with many rocks he knows the truth about his parents death, but doesn’t think the kid is worthy of the information. Nymphomous (Tree leader)Despite living in a forest and being a lumber jack shamis has never met tree folk. However being a lumberjack all the woodland creatures find him to be evil and attack on site. But Nymphomous is the head tree elf of the forest is willing to tell you everything she needs to know, but she is presently trapped and must be rescued from her nemesis bark, a giant tree that ate her for her powers. Bark (Tree boss)This huge tree feels that you, being part of the populus, are the cause for all their fires and cutting down of trees. Which is mainly true, but this tree has decided to do the same to all human folk.

  13. Game Specification Character Bibles- continued 2 Sprites, twigs, and saplings Minions of the tree monster called bark. These simple fairy creatures attack on site. Each being stronger than the previous, and larger. Pebbles, rocks, and bouldersMinions of the Rock boss. These are simple granules which are stronger than the previous, and larger. Townsfolk Despite the odd look, as though they all live in caves, they are quite nice and treat you with moderate respect, despite the fact that not one of them would take you in when your parents died. They can be somewhat helpful selling you items, swindling you out of gold … etc.

  14. Game Specification Level Outlines: introafter walking for a ways trying to find a good size tree, so that he could make some good money and buy some cherry desert he had been eyeing at the bakers for quite some time, he noticed he was much further out than he had ever been into the forest. The townsfolk told him terrible things lurked in there, especially nasty rocks, but growing up in the city he saw no cause for alarm at a common rock…. <enter boy into forest eyeing large odd looking tree, and just as he is about to hack it down it speaks> stop that, startled the boy talks to the tree, after apologizing and talking awhile the tree tells you that he will give you something more valuable than his hide if he goes on a quest for him. And that being information about his parents death… so now you wonder off further into the forest looking for nymphemous. Level 1: dark forestDark forest, taken over by the evil bark. Have to defeat the minions and gain levels up, gaining money, can go to town to buy things, weapons swords… Boss 1: barkBark the first boss of the game, simple dodge and attack to defeat the enemy. The enemy is a gigantic tree at the top of the screen and has multiple dead trees around itself which throw spikes at you and it protects itself when it isn’t throwing spikes. Once defeated nymphemous is released and tells you about the evil rockachoo, who may know all about your parents demise, and gives you a hammer to fend off rocks Level 2: mountiansSince the story is linear you cannot go back to the previous dark forest or town. These mountains have dropping terrain and harder enemies, axe wont work at all. Possible to level ups here plus troll, and dwarf stores in the mountain caves to purchase weapons and armor

  15. Game Specification Level Outlines continued: Last and final boss: rockachooSimilar to bark, but he spits a barrage of rocks from his mouth, a huge rock face carved in the mountain, and then large flailing arms to attack you with. Defeating him gives you the ending with credits and score Credits/scoreCredits, is just labeling who did what, but the ending tells about how the townspeople killed his parents and covered it up, and how he goes back to town and gets his revenge, and cherry desert. The score is devised by how much experience you gained, money-(overall) and if you got all the weapons. High score gets a bonus ending.
