Week One - 22/09/08

This week we received our brief for the designing for the user module and I decided to base it on an idea for a game of my own that I intend to focus on next year. The project requires us to generate or redesign an interface for an existing game, or one of our own creation, using Adobe Flash.
The working title is New Model Army and it is a 1st/3rd person freeroam action/adventure game, set in the English civil war; an era that I believe has been largely overlooked within the industry.
I began the project by researching the heads up displays (HUD) and menu systems of a wide range of game genres and then focused more detailed research of the genres the game would cover.
I then began mocking up potential layouts and designs in a sketchbook.
