TRANSCRIPT

  • VERSION: 1.0

    The game was to be designed in realistic character as of it is for kids the characters has been

    changed to chibi style characters

    VERSION: 1.1

    The game was planned to do in project anarchy a game engine designed by havoc especially

    for mobile games

    VERSION: 1.2

    Again the engine was changed to JPCT AE this engine had no support for orthographic view

    So I and my developer had to drop this engine

    VERSION: 1.3

    We tried UNITY this time it was the best and it had all the support we needed for this game

    so we started with unity

    HIGH CONCEPT:

    A small boy was sent out from his place because he failed in defending his kingdom so he has

    to learn mathematics to acquire his kingdom back

    CORE TENETS:

    Although our hero is a small boy he is master of his swords he can defeat anybody with his

    swords. These swords have a special ability wherever the world our hero goes the swords

    take the main element of that world and equips into the sword. The only weakness our hero

    has is mathematics

  • Sword master

    Escape artist

    Impulsive moves

    OVERVIEW OF THE GAME:

    WHY THIS GAME:

    This game has one of the most interesting and scaled up storyline as to how a small kid, to learn

    mathematics can go to any extent to achieve it. It is thereby a lot different than the other mobile title

    games out in the market.

    HOW DIFFERENT IT IS FOR ONE TO CHOOSE IT OVER THE OTHER:

    The Trans of story of the player, from being a prince under the circumstances that he faces is

    definitely one to pick. Apart from that, the mathematics based missions have a different gameplay

    with the visuals of a fantasy world

    HOW DOES IT ENGAGE THE PLAYER INTO THE STORYLINE?

    The game starts as by playing Goku who is a prince of a fantasy land is a happy go easy guy living in

    a castle. He is cherished by his people and he loves them as well. However, on a fatal morning , there

    is a attack on the kingdom of theirs and his king tells Goku to go fight them with their soldiers our

    prince counts the enemy soldiers as 10 for 30 soldiers without knowing mathematics so the king only

    sends 10 soldiers to defeat 10 soldiers at last our hero is been defeated by the enemy soldiers guilt

    Goku goes back to his king and apologises him raged king throws him out of the kingdom to come

  • back only when he learns mathematics properly knowing this deal the twin evil brother Loki sends his

    army to defeat Goku if he doesnt answers mathematics correctly

    REPLAYABLITY:

    The replay ability is as such there because there are tons of unlockable in the game both as when the

    protagonist is a prince and an assassin. There are many mini games that trigger on spot in the game

    and the player can choose to complete his primary quest to complete the game or get involved in the

    secondary quests as well. The player has to answer the questions triggered within the given time and

    has to also collect the gold the questions asked are not the same every time

    REWARD SYSTEM:

    The main reward is the players can learn mathematics and the player has to collect coins the player

    will get sword of the world every world he goes the creep who come to attack has will be in the colour

    of the world it is basically a visual treat

    AUDIENCE TARGETED, MARKET POTENTIAL, GENRE:

    The game would sell as the age group of 8+will be able to understand the involving storyline

    and the game play better, apart from the graphics the mathematics makes it an exciting

    prospect for the age group. It as an action adventures educational based game.

    BACK STORY AND PLOT:

    There is a fantasy galaxy somewhere in that there are four worlds the ice, fire, earth and gold.

    The gold is where Goku ,Loku and the king lives one day their gold kingdom is on an attack

    the king tells Goku to count the army as the king gives his army to fight with . Goku doesnt

    know mathematics properly so he goes and counts 10 instead of 30 the king give 10 of his

    soldiers to fight with. Goku has been defeated by the soldiers so Goku again goes to king and

    apologises him the angry king throws off Goku in ice world and tells him to only come back

    when u have learnt mathematics knowing this deal the evil twin brother Loku plots a plan and

  • tell his soldiers to kill Goku if has not learnt mathematics and he will take the kingdom then

    Goku fights his way back learning mathematics and Loku give all his power to a special

    soldier made of gold Goku defeats that soldier all way done so Loku has no power to survive

    so Loku dies at appoint weakened Loku takes a promise from Goku that to not cheat the ones

    u believe and dies in the arms of Goku then Loku dies. Goku takes on the place of Loku and

    the game ends

    GAME MECHANICS

    Goku is a well-trained person he knows how to attack the enemies carefully without getting

    hit by them. He has the art of blocking and attacking the enemy the game is designed for

    android tablets so an android joystick is kept for the player and there are two buttons on the

    right side to use

    Joystick Skill buttons

    UP-player moves forward Attack button

    DOWN-player moves backwards Block button

    RIGHT-player moves to the right

    LEFT- player moves to the left

  • TRAITS

    HEALTH BAR: Goku has very limited health availability which it will decrease when he

    gets attacked by the creep

    CREEP: These are usually dumb and are controlled by Loku and but they are strong they

    attack very furiously

    GAME MODES, CAMERA AND VISUALS OF THE GAME:

    The game is a single player action adventurous educational game

    The camera is orthographic during the cut scenes different camera angle is used

    The visuals of the game are cartoonish render with toon shader in unity engine

    The worlds will look like hanging in gravity

    CHARACTER LIST:

    GOKU: Protagonist of the game is quite the vibrant and glorified character. His training was

    exceptionally good at the weak in mathematics strong by the heart can defeat anyone doesnt

    care about anything

    LOKU: Antagonist of the game twin brother of Goku always thinks about acquiring the

    kingdom he is good at mathematics and he is in the process of killing his brother

    CREEPS: These are usually dumb and are controlled by Loku and but they are strong they

    attack very furiously

  • CHECKPOINTS:

    On reaching certain hiding spots the player can save the progress, which would help the

    player start from a safe distance. To make it easier for the player there are frequent

    checkpoints before and after the main combats. This is to ensure the players dont have to

    cover areas which they dont seem necessary.

    WEAPONS

    GOKU:

    Goku has two swords each in a hand those swords have a special power the sword absorbs

    the power of each world wherever goku goes

    CREEP:

    Creeps also have a sword but they are big these swords also have similar power as goku

    because they all are wield in the same kingdom

    GAME PROGRESSION:

    ACT 1:

    Goku comes out of gold castle and goes to ice kingdom to learn mathematics and the creeps

    come to attack him he should then attack them again to pass through the ice kingdom and

    then the teleport opens up to the next kingdom

    ACT 2:

    Goku comes out of ice kingdom and goes to earth kingdom to learn mathematics and the

    creeps come to attack him he should then attack them again to pass through the earth

    kingdom and then the teleport opens up to the next kingdom

  • ACT 3:

    Goku comes out of earth kingdom and goes to fire kingdom to learn mathematics and the

    creeps come to attack him he should then attack them again to pass through the fire kingdom

    and then the teleport opens up to the next kingdom

    ACT 4:

    Goku comes out of fire kingdom and goes to finally to gold kingdom to learn mathematics

    and the creeps come to attack him with the help of Loku this time he should then attack them

    again to defeat Loku and then Loku dies with loss of power and health then the game ends

    and Goku will take over the Kingdom

    ESRB rating: 5+

    MARKET STRATEGY:

    Initially we would have a giveaway of a few copies of the game that would be a demo version. As our

    market is to focus on the age group of more than five years of age we would also enlighten the players

    of the various gameplay techniques that are involved in the game. Moreover they would definitely see

    a futuristic environment and the storyline would adhere to their nerves and definitely a few campaigns

    would add to the tally of sales of the game.
