In week 4 we were trying to figure out what topic would work with our theme of hack and slash. The topics given to us were on social issues that was serious while we were focusing on the player having fun as they ran around the environment feeling like a ultimate warrior.
At first looking at these topics my mind was fairly blank and I was not sure what to pick. So Kunal suggested why not pick a topic on environment. Instantly my brain started firing up ideas. In a hack and slash game we need enemies in form of people or monsters to slash them down. So I suggested bio monsters or bio beings that rise up and are a threat to humanity and our player had to fight against these creatures and restore balance in the world.
So the primary topics we chose were-
Climate change issues.
Genetically modified organisms.
With these as our core topics I started developing a story on this idea. I wanted to show the various from of pollution as monsters and humanity on the side of nature fighting against these monsters.
