My 3d game early stages.

THE MUTANTS

This game is about a super hero called Fore Runner; he thinks that there is nobody else like him in the world. Fore Runner has the power of super speed, and uses weapons of choice, usually 2 batons. One day as Fore Runner was helping the police with a crime, downtown was being destroyed by a super villain who calls himself The Red Terror, he with the power of flight and the power of wind, was tearing up the ground and destroying buildings in search of technology for his ultimate weapon. Soon this rivalry will start epic proportions. This game is set in a present day city called Rachel; it's an action/adventure game. Your objectives in the game are too reach the destroyed part of Downtown and stop red terror. along the way I hope to have side missions available. There wont be any pickups or anything around to help you defeat your enemy,

review of jumpers for goals posts 3

This is a football game for online use where you play as an under aged youth player working his way up the foot balling ladder. you can train for matches in techniques such as volley's over head kicks and headers. you can also manage your personal life on the outside world, go to the pub cinema or a cheap resturant. doing these things will get you caught in the public eye which depending on your actions will either annoy or please your manager. playing in matches is tough you have to impress game in and game out, if not you risk being dropped from the team and thus becoming a free agent. I was very impressed with this game, it provides you with a challenge which is beatable, you have many options on what to do in matches and on the training ground. the personal life  is a really nice touch and the consequences that follow are also good. overall this is probably the best football game on the net at the moment. i would give it a 9/10 great game.

Feedback

Well i have no need to dance around the obvious fact that i didn't complete my game. so feedback had a bit of a pattern which i already new except now its written down in paper for me to remind me of my own laziness. However people were generally happy with my menu since it was the only thing that was fully complete and working. Glitches.... well i didnt have any because of the lack of levels, and suggestions all where the same, make a game.

Evaluation of my game

Well to be plain, i need to improve greatly on time management and organisation, i  didn't get complete my 2d game, nor did i even get to create my graphics for the game. though this is my first assignment of the year and hopefully i can improve alot of the remainder of the college year. i did learn how to use scratch but still having problems with photoshop, for general brainstorming ideas i was very good at this perhaps too much because i usually got carried away or distracted, loosing my focus and again loosing more time on my assignment.
