Unfortunately for the whole of the week our team leader had fallen sick. So Dom took up the main team leader role and he did a very good job of it. Despite not having our team leader we worked well and got work done. I showed my research into different cartoon styles and everyone else showed their concept ideas. We decided that we would have a semi realistic style to the design of the animals and board. We have gone against the idea of building your own animal and instead are having human characters. We decided that there can be up to 4 players who collect animal cards that they have to return to their habitat; the board is split into different habitats- hills, river, coast, forest. I then went off to continue to develop concept ideas and Johnny went and created ideas for the human playable characters.
Here are my final concept ideas.
We played a game called Dragonology. You play a human explorer and you travel the world collecting cards that enable you to collect dragons. The person who collects 3 dragons first wins the game. We saw that this game is similar to ours and we decided that we could do a similar game play but with a few added extras. So Dom and Lee created a rough demo of the game and we quickly saw what was wrong with it. It was taking too long, boring and was a little confusing. With some more brain storming ideas they will refine the mechanics of the game and make another.
