designing

our aim is to create our own version of an asteroid game. but when creating out game we must try to find a way to make it different.
in order to think of my game i have to first think of a setting and goal. this will help me decide as to what you will have to do in the game.

i struggled to think of a theme or setting to base my game on, at first i thought about basing my game inside of a forest and it was like a maze, but after asking someone about it i was told that making a maze would be to hard as it involved to much coding for an armature. so in the end i turned to look at the time of year it is now. Halloween is coming so i had taken inspiration from this holiday. i want my game to be more aimed at young children. so i decided that there will in staid of having to kill things you gave to collect things.
in the end my games idea is that you are a witch or wizard and you have to collect pumpkins for your pumpkin soup. if you get hit by a ghost it will subtract from your pumpkin counter but if you get hit by a bat then it will take away a life.

for the graphics i want it to look a bit like the graphics from Pokemon. for example the way how your character is always in the centre of the screen. also i would like to have it have the same kind of artwork but unfortunately i think i have to keep to vector images to keep the program from slowing down
