Self-Evaluation

Describe your game (including a title) The title of my game is “Are You Afraid Of The Dark?” I decided to name this the title of my game because in it you venture underground into the dark and on some parts you don’t have a torch just the dim lighting of the background. My game is pretty much find the escape pod and you win. You venture threw the level and underground and encounter many enemies along the way.

What is the objective of the game? Go threw the level and find the escape pod to win the game. It’s a simple task but I think its better then having to find a crystal which is too time consuming on some parts and defeating all the enemies isn’t really a great objective.

Discuss two strengths and one weakness of your game. Two strengths of my game I think are one, that I made the layout of the game easy to navigate but still fun to go threw with all the interesting backgrounds I added and two that its not very long but its still challenging to get threw. One weakness to me is just the overall layout some parts are kind of messy with stuff now that I look back on my game.

What improvements could be made? One improvement that could be made is increasing the length of the game to some people it may seem to short or too quick to play threw it.

What difficulties did you encounter while creating your game? One difficulty I encountered while creating my game was that when I started to go underground I didn’t block off each section to the other so if you were at a high point you could pretty much jump to the end of the game.

What did you have to modify or change from the original design? I changed the objective at first it was to defeat all the enemies in the level but since some of the level was underground it would be to dark to see some of them and you would run passed them and get to the end and not have completed the objective. I changed it to instead that when you get to the end if you survive all the enemies you leave the mission with an escape pod.

Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your performance during this assignment. Strengths were that I was able to make a good game and weakness was that I failed to complete the write up on the game on time.
