Know each other
This week, we are not in a hurry to start making games immediately. The first thing we do is to get to know each other. My teammates-Li and zhu. I think this is a very correct decision, because this is the first topic since we met. We need to know more before we can determine the skills that each of us is good at.
-What kind of games do we like
-What effect do we want to achieve
-What kind of experience do we want to get from this game design?
It takes us time to communicate these contents, but it is very necessary. I think its value lies in finding a correct and unanimous direction for us. In the process of communication, we may find some unexpected inspiration. Such as past study or work experience.
Play games together
We agree that it is an effective way to experience several games together. So I played several popular games (such as amoug us,Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout) and interactive games that can be played by video: Who is undercover, Three Kingdoms Kill, Wolf Kill.
I think, according to our preferences and abilities, we can roughly infer a design direction. We hope this game can make players know each other easily through online video. Games make this process of getting to know each other less awkward. It is best to let players experience the fun of playing games, which I think is the most important thing. We should not make the game too tense or make the process appear dispensable.
Next week we will gather everyone’s ideas. Im really looking forward to it.
