Game Ideas Mind Maps

Initially I had this idea of a time traveling sniper who was the explanation of some of the worlds greatest mysteries and key poeint in histroy such as some of the unexplained deaths of celebrities to why and how events build up via the butterfly effect. I thought this was an extremely unique game and very original but when I was trying to come up with its whole story line I couldn't get it well rounded and so was a little bit loose ended.
This game was asurprisingly good hit with my target audience. This game has a fiarly simple context but has lots of major twists and turns. The games main character is customisable with things you find along you way and depeniding on whos lives you spare and which routes you take but at the begenning also you can choose from multipul characters. But key moments in the game will be inevitable and has a big shock factor being that there is no happy ending with only a slight resolution.

I think I came up with this game purely due to the fact I really enjoy Mirrors edge however I feel like a wide array of people have not played it and therefore only seen snippets of gameplay which can be boring and so might gain the wrong impression but none the less if you like mirrors edge then this would have been a sick game and one that we have all thought about! 



Mind maps were really effective as I could look at all of my ideas that I created and could essentially self-evaluate. The side by side layout allowed me to see what were good ideas and what were weak ones and similarities. This also improved my efficiency as I could merge ideas together and decide on them quicker. I was able to save money by evaluating the best ideas on paper through simple illustrations or words instead of going through up to the final production stage for it to essientially be a waste.
