Summary

This was a solo project of mine where I create a game from an idea I had for a while. For the project, I made a Design Bible, a magic system research and analysis document, and a Magic System Unity Prototype for the game.

The game is a 3D, top-down experience that takes the player on an adventure in a world filled with magic that is driven through sound and music.

The player can explore a creative world, fight enemies with music-driven magic, solve puzzles and interact with the world around them.

Learning Outcomes

Unity Prototyping and C# Scripting: I prototyped movement, one magic spell and resources in Unity.

Game Mechanics and Systems Design: I designed the whole magic system, the different mechanics attributed to it, and documented everything in the design bible and in a magic system document.

Narrative Design and Writing: I created a narrative for the game, lore, conflicts, characters and more. It is all documented in the design bible.

Research and Documentation: Researching of magic systems, games which use quick time events, and analyses for each.
