The player objective in my game would be to find and free a dragon mothers three lost children. Playing as said mother dragon who just escaped her own bindings, the player will have to explore a dungeon like environment to find all the keys to unlock each room her little dragons are trapped in. The mechanics would most likely walk around and explore the environment as I\u2019m not confident in my ability to code in unity. It would be interesting to maybe add some sort of attack or small flight ability but I\u2019ll have to see how far I can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The player character would be Lavina the dragon mother after waking up freed from her cell by a mysterious wizard sympathetic to her cause. The three children go by Sadiki, Termire and Persepora. The objects of the game that the player must find beside the location of the three dragons are the three keys to release them. Another mechanic that might be interesting is some sort of call mechanic that the baby dragons would mimic quietly to help track them down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world that the game takes place in would be very medieval fantasy inspired. Where settlements of both man and monster are found throughout it and very often find conflict with one another. Hunters are constantly on the prowl for creatures of any kind. For their parts are valued highly as many humans aspiring to learn magic can use them to control the elements themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The audience the game would aim for is fantasy lover’s as well as those who enjoy a story of a family trying to survive in the world. The game style would feel adventure based in the exploration of the dungeon and perhaps stealth based in maneuvering around it. It will most likely also be in the 3rd person view. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The art style I’m hoping to achieve would be a mix of the cartoony but still have some realistically textured objects and creature designs of Spyro and the Monster Hunter Stories and baseline Monster Hunter games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
