Game design #4

I have now finalised the idea of the game that I will achieve. There will be 5 levels each representing one of the food groups. The objective of each level is to move ‘Dora’ from left to right and eat the food shown on a plate and that food only within a certain time shown on a timer clock. As the levels progress the amount of food on the plate will increase, the falling food will quicken and the time length will shorten. You will have 3 lives and there will be a falling ‘Swiper’ (a badie character on the show!) which they will have to avoid or loose a life, catching the wrong food will also loose points. At the end of each level there will be an information page showing what food type was being collected and what it gives to the child i.e. Energy.
I have also created the instruction pages which include short animation helping to explain the instructions visually as a lot of children’s games include this incase the reading skills of the child are of low ability.
