My sheep

I am definatley going ahead with the sheep game. My game will be done from a birds eye view. I did this image which could be used as the opening screen maybe. I want my sheep to look very cartoonish, therefore i will go for this style. I am now goin to do some more images in Illustrator/Photoshop of the sheep from a birdseye view.

Meeting with mike

After showing mike my game idea's, i have decided to develop my sheep game.

   The aim of the game is to round all the sheep into the pen. You are the dog, and have to run around the field stopping the sheep from running away.

At the moment the game seems pretty simple. I am now going to develop this idea further. 

Maybe the dog has to round all the sheep with red collars, by separating them from the collarless sheep.

Or maybe the sheep could blow up after a certain amount of time.

I need to think about a scoring system and how much time you have to complete the task.

I will also create character profiles, which will also help generate ideas.

Final Idea

Development of ideas

Ideas

For this game, i thought about having a timer. The player would have to complete a series of tasks in a selected amount of time.
For this idea i thought about the player being a child, that has to complete different tasks throughout the day. In this level you have to find the childs school uniform intime for the school bus.

Here is a view game ideas that i created, to help generate more ideas. I particually like the birds-eye view game. I think that this would work well for a game were you have to move around different areas. E.g a town.
The game in the top left looks to much like mario, therefore i wont be using that idea.

This game reminds me of subway. The player would need a good memory to play ths game. The aim of the game is to remember what each customer has ordered, and make sure that they get the correct food.
The levels could get harder by increasing the amount each customer orders.
