Statement of intent...

I have chosen to do a prototype game environment for a kids game, that promotes an eco-friendly message called Litter Picker. I will include a game character that kids from the ages of 4-6 will be able to control and pick up rubbish in a 3D environment with points as the reward. It will be from a third person perspective to allow the kids to connect with the character. It will be a side scroller game to make the game objective simple for the target audience. I will be creating the sounds, animations and controls for the prototype game that will consist of one level. As the character collects the litter the player will be rewarded with points as well as a new environment to show the impact of the character's actions. Hopefully this will deliver a meaningful message to the audience as well as being an immersive and entertaining game for children. The practical application of the game could be in primary schools, to deliver a message that otherwise could be overlooked.
