Initial Idea to Take Over

Now before this Friday we have been told to have a working prototype of our game. Well at the moment we haven't really got any game, its all different ideas in our head in which we have to get down onto paper, so not much.

From a little bit of research behind the picture that Bridget Riley Painted, 'Ease', we found out that it was painted in Egypt and around the theme of it. After todays meeting together in the group and the recurring word 'destruction' in a brain storm, after a couple of hours of debating some ideas. we came up with the idea of building, like Egyptians did with the Pyramids (see more of a connection) and well having some mechanism which you can use to destroy.

So the basics of the game is that two players have two minutes to build build a structure that is strong and resist to knocks. After the two minutes each player rolls a dice and whatever number appears on the Dice (this is where the destruction part comes in) that player gets that number of tries to knock down the other players structure with a pendulum. The number of blocks that are on top on each other are the number of points that you get for that round. Over 5 rounds, the person who has had the most number of blocks left on top of each other wins.

Now from this by Friday we have to have a working prototype. and we have scheduled another meeting for Thursday too so we can review what we have to use as a prototype as well.
