Description: My game concept is centered in my grocery shopping experience as a race to be finished. Personal obstacles – including the main villain, will be primarily the Stop and Shop Robot. I hate that robot. I want to create a top down racing game centered around the blasted robot. The player will be in a race against time to get out of the store while avoiding the robots and the messes they are sent to clean up.

I will use the MakeyMakey kit to create a controller that will add a difficulty element as well. I want my conductive materials to be regular grocery store items. I want to use only one tin or metal can. Every other element I use in my controller will be fruit, vegetables, sauces, yogurt and even an egg.

Marty the robot’s friends have decided to throw him a birthday party at my local Stop and Shop. I am not aware that instead of just one robot blocking my path through the grocery store, I will have up to five robots to contend with as I try to finish my shopping trip as quickly as possible.

The setting will be a top down view of a grocery store in a pixelated style. I will have a floor, aisles, aisles with different foods, spilled grocery sprites, a grocery cart sprite and five robot sprites initially.

The images below are examples of my color palette and approximate viewpoint for the game.

I plan on introducing the materials in the images above as part of my Makey Makey controller for my game.

The plan is to layout the shelving in the grocery store in a similar fashion to the image above. See my map below. The black line indicates where the player will be able to walk and the grocery shelving is indicated by text.
