The Hunt

 

Name: Matthew Nyland 

Candidate Number: 

Centre Number: 64315

Story/Narrative: You play a character called Teddy Tent, Teddy is a detective that is investigating suspicious murders in an isolated village called Edville, he finds himself stuck in the town as the one way out is blocked which forces him to stay the night. Once he gets set up in a B and B in the village he notices something suspicious going on within the village, for example, the place he is staying is completely empty and for a Saturday night, the village has an eerie silence to it. Ted decides to investigate and soon discovers a light coming from the nearby woods, after reaching the woods Teddy makes a shocking discovery, nearly the whole village (known as The Hoods) are stood around a fire with a villager who refused to join them, before this villager is killed Teddy is noticed and it’s a now a matter of life or death as you have to escape the villagers.

Genre: The genre of my game is an action/adventure game that can be played in both first or second person, the game is an action game due to the amount of violence that will be within the game, it also fits the adventure game genre because the player has to search the village for clues and try to escape it.

Levels: My levels in my game will be set up like ones in the Assassins Creed franchise in the sense that I will have memories but I will have them within sequences, once someone gets through a sequence they will unlock new things each time and there will be certain amount of missions within each sequence, all in all I believe there will be about 8 sequences in my game as if it goes on too long It will become boring.

Gameplay: As I said earlier the game will be played in either a first, second or third person format which means the player is able to choose whatever view he wants, the player also gets to explore the village and can do things such as clicking on clues to help him out. This means that the game has elements of point and click in it. The player can also do things such as run and walk as well as fight against other characters in the game.

Characters: The main character of my game that will be controlled by the player is Teddy Tent, Teddy is the detective in my game, throughout the game he will meet new allies such as Anne and Bill as well as some of The Hoods leaders such as Joshua and Samuel.

Length: The length of my game will be 6 hours of gameplay, the main reason why is that I believe this is around the average length for a story mode to take place on a game, especially when there is no online mode or DLC or expansion packs.

Control System: My game is going to be released on both a games console platform and a PC platform meaning the game will have to be made to fit these formats, if it is made on a games console then the game will have to be made to fit a PS4 or Xbox One games controller as well as a PS3 and Xbox 360 controller. The game will also have to completely change its format to then fit the PC.
