Game Proposal: Dome
For the final project of this class, we were asked to collaborate as a group to develop a concept for 3 character to interact in a game. The three character archetypes had to include: a player-character, an enabling NPC, and an NPC attempting to thwart the player in some way. The characters were the main focus and the game had to demonstrate how the characters drove the game.
Report based upon the factors we learned throughout the semester regarding creating characters for games.
