3D Game Idea

Blog 2: Game Idea

Initial Game Concept:
I think a fun initial idea of a simple 3D game would consist of someone kicking a soccer ball, and avoiding the other teams feet to get through and score a goal.  Could control the ball with the arrow keys and could add a sort of heaviness to the ball making it difficult to get through the feet.  This game would take a lot of effort to work out the gravity of the ball.  This could simulate the curve that players put on the ball.

Mission Statement:
The statement would be to make a fun game that relates to a realistic aspect of the sport.  Soccer players would appreciate the fact that this is not a game that is clearly made by a non-soccer player.  The goal would be to score a goal by getting past the defenders and the goalie.

Basic Gameplay Elements:
The ball will have a strong heaviness that makes it very difficult for it to change directions, adding difficulty to the game.  Also, after getting through a few defenders, the speed of the ball could increase, forcing you to make quicker decisions. 

Must Haves:
The hit boxes of the ball and the opposition must be precise, there is nothing worse than playing a game with sketchy hit boxes.  Also, the graphics of the ball and the field must look realistic with good looking textures.

Nice to Haves:
Being able to customize your player, his jersey and the ball you use would be a really cool aspect to the game.  Maybe add some different difficulties so it is not too hard or too easy for anyone.
