My Video Game Idea for the Door Project


For my own video game, I'd like my game to be set in a test-chamber like setting, a bit like Portal but, reducing the, pristine test chamber-like setting they have in the games. In the beta version, it had more of a dark & grimy appearance, setting so, I'll most likely will be going with that: 


Portal in it's beta (see image above)


What will the controls consist of?

I've a few ideas, but mainly W A S & D to move around, W & S for moving forwards and back, A & D to move side to side. Left Click would be for pressing buttons. 


(To be amended) 


How will the game do it's course, what's the story like?

At this moment in time, I'm not sure what kind of story I'll be making for the game; the game may not have a story at all, just a quick summary of what's going on, a couple of game objectives & some puzzles along the way. The brief plot I've in mind is, you've woken up in a grimy test chamber, in a lab; There's only one door in front of you and you've to complete a series of puzzles in order for the door to open & to grasp your chance of escaping! On the topic of puzzles, my puzzles will be influenced from Portal. However, there'll be a series of puzzles to open the door;

  • Firstly a cube randomly placed on the floor, with a button to power up the door
  • Then, when the door's activated, a number pad will also power up & you'd need to enter a code but, you've to figure out & search the chamber in order for you to figure out
  • And, then lastly, the number pad will open one of it's panels & dispenses a key with a specific lock on it, you've to open it up to break the seal of the doors! Then, there's a possibility that they'll open & you can escape!!

(A cube on button which activates the door on the far left)

Any possible Hazards to look out for?

My game may also consist of some hazards such as spiky walls or pits, pits filled with deadly acid & moving pillars.

Sculpting in Blender

-
Image
Sculpting in Blender In Blender, our teacher showed us the sculpting tab. The Sculpting Tab in Blender is used to sculpt meshes, mainly for making realistic human models or for adding details to food models like odd crevices to a doughnut. Before getting used to Blender's Sculpting Tab, we messed around with many of the sculpting tools such as the inflate, etc., And then, for a little task, we had to have two cube meshes in the viewport. Then, I renamed both meshes, one naming "cube_low" and the other "cube_high". Then I selected mesh "cube_high", added in a Sub-Surf Modifier, and added loop cuts and brought them right to the original edges of the cube mesh. The reason why this was done is because, when applying a Sub-Surf modifier to a cube, it deforms it, making it look like an odd cylinder. So, adding loop cuts and bringing them, really tight to the original edges of the cube, can bring back it's shape. Once all that's done, I applied the su

TARDIS Compositing Project

  TARDIS Compositing Project Plan/Idea I've seen several renders of people compositing their TARDIS models on shots from various models from Doctor Who, even on-set photos. I sometimes see TARDIS composite renders in other movies, such as Bladerunner 2049 .  I wanted to do something a little different by taking actual photos of Leicester City Centre, and composite my TARDIS 3d model in those photos instead. I asked my friend, Bhadir ( bhadir.jpg on Instagram), who is a photographer and he is able to help me out with this project. Unfortunately, he is studying in London but, when he's able to come to Leicester, we'll be able to take some photos of the city centre. Bhadir has advised me to consider doing a "recce" (reconnaissance), which means surveying the area to get a good idea of what the it is, how we could take the photo, etc,. from my understanding and I do agree with him. As I'm not fully clear on how a reconnaissance is done for photography, I'll

Chase Yourself Project

  Chase Yourself Project For this project, I've been asked, by my VFX teacher, to film  a short film. The project is called "Chase Yourself".  See "Chase Yourself Documents" Blog for evidence of the Tasks done. In this project, the film is about you chasing yourself. And I'd like to think of this is a way of testing our knowledge in filming, composition & editing. Task 1 - Pre-Production Documents Pre-Production is a way of planning your short film, before actually filming it. These consists of;  Treatment Plan- A way of setting out, what your short film will be like, who'll be featured in it, the basic plot, who's the targeted audience etc, Gantt Chart - A sheet to schedule each section of a project. For example you fill in with blocks when you'll be filming etc., Location Scouting - Is essential when filming. You must find & research an area suitable for your film & write the pros & cons of said location & do a risk assessme
