Project 7: The Penguins

Today we had to have some idea of what it is we were to base our concept around. We were able to come up with an idea that looks to be more original and different in this field area oppose to the standard treasure hunt/task completing style. It will be about getting the player to become immersed into this world by being taken to see various passages around this world like an exhibition. This will allow a way of explaining to the player important information about what the world is like without it seeming like they are just being introduced to it for the first time. The way of giving the information will involve some sort of visual or audio medium.

This idea has gained the most unanimous amount of interest so far and looks to be the one to take further towards a story concept. So far we have come up with a few concepts involving this idea and highlighted the values of each one. We agreed that this will need thorough discussion and maybe a few more concepts on Tuesday before we can finalise on what to decide on. Over the weekend we will look into researching other practices that have used similar ideas, including movies, games, books etc. to help with the creative thinking.
