Open-Project - Brain Storm
This is the my main brain storm of ideas, these are the thoughts that I have had for the open project.
For the open project, I am going to do a 3D environment as my chosen area. The brain storm above shows what I have had.
Frozen Landscape - Although the name suggests an Ice like feel to it, I was more into the thought of time being stopped, and I know that creating an environment may include an already stillness to it, but I wanted for this to be able to make creatures within the environment and make them so that they were paused halfway through their movement in the illusion that time has just stopped within this space.
Heaven and Hell - This is the idea that there would be two contrasting areas within the same map, there would be little else I could really do for this other than go for the obvious, so that people new that I was trying to accomplish with this idea.
Abandoned Battle Field - This is the thought that I would be able to make a mythical type of battle, this would be like a sandy area, with wreckage strewn across the land, there would be swords, flags and armor laying around.
Grave Yard - This would be like a ghostly, mystical type of environment, and this would be more leaning towards the dark side of fantasy.
Mt. Olympus - This would be a brightly lit area, and the design would be somewhat based off that of the Disney film Hercules. And there would be small pillars in the room, they would have different items on them identifying the Greek Gods so Poseidon would have a Trident .
Witches House - This would be like a little cabin in the woods. Inside there would be Pots and potions and ingredients all over the place, there would be a sleeping room, and also a small library.
Icy Landscape - This idea came from the first and also the thought of doing something similar to the movie Frozen by Disney.
Under Water - This was the idea of doing something like a city below the water, where mer-people would thrive and this is something that intrigued me greatly but also troubled me, because how would I be able to make it look convincing that the player was underwater.
Dragon Reserve - Dragons are something that I am greatly interested in, they would be interesting to try and add them into the game, but I don't know whether I would add the actual dragons into the game and just make the compounds that they would be kept in and also whether or not to make it so that there is more to it, like a training area as well.
Deserted Town - This would have a number of different little houses in an area, and they would look as though the houses were either left in a rush or people/creatures were taken out by another force, but it did not disturb anything else within the area.
Ruins - This would be run down and pretty damaged, the would be lift and also there would be pretty much no population within the area, this would be due to a curse on the ruins that would effect people and make them minions to the entity that is within the ruins.
Egyptian Pyramids - Cursed tombs and empty open mummy caskets. This would be set within the 1800's when English people went mad for Egyptian artifacts.
Troll Bridge - This would be set in a valley environment and the bridge would be quite big but also worn, under the bridge is where the trolls would reside.
Woodland Area - This would basically be a woods that was filled with fairy/nymph creatures, these would have an intricate little town that would go tree to tree. The player would be a small creature like that themselves and they would be able to transverse the living areas of the fairies and nymphs.
Birthday Party - This would be something interesting if I was going to do creatures within the game, or say if I did a 2D game or an animation. This would be the idea that there would be a number of different creatures around a table, and they would be from all different myths and legends.
Enchanted Castle - This would be the idea of Harry Potter by J.K.Rowling, a castle that would basically be able to think for it self, however this would not be a school this would be for like a mage's guild of sorts.
Prehistoric - This would be like someones house, and it would be based within the period with dinosaurs, this would be an environment for a survival game in with the character has time travelled back in time, and has not previsions except for the clothes that he is wearing. and he would be able to kill and tame the dinosaurs when he gets to a certain level within the game.
Library - This would be a magical library with books that would float to the reader if the reader says their name. Also depending on when book you get there may be a different occurrence. Like if Alice in Wonderland is picked up the player would go to a different universe. But if its a weather book then dependent on the weather outside then the book will blow wind, shine light, etc.
Volcanic Landscape - This would basically be a waste land that would have little cave all around and the player would have to collect something from each one so that at the end they would be able to progress and get out of the 'pit'.
Kings and Queens - This would be a med-evil castle for elves, so this would have many levels, there would be sleeping quarters, ball room, kitchen and dining room, and also a throne room and basement.
Dungeon - This would be just a basement that would have cells and a torture chamber and this is would have weapons and also different utensils that would be used for torturing people. There would also be bones strewn across the area.
Mythical school - Different types of creatures would come here, and some of the more dyer needs would be taken care of, like werewolves, they would be put into cages below ground so that they can wait out the full moon without hurting other students.
Unicorn Ranch - This would basically be a horse ranch but for unicorns, there would be a training ring, stables, a house for the unicorn tamer/owner/caretaker. This would have tools, saddles and other such things that are needed for taking care of unicorns.
Planets - This would be more on the lines of Sci-Fi Fantasy rather than strictly fantasy. This is the idea that there would be little miniature little planets that would all be connected to on another, and they would have a different town/city and some would be rural and some would be urban.
The four ideas that I have thought about doing.
Battle Field
Frozen Landscape
Dragon Reserve
Unicorn Ranch
For these I have done some pretty basic pre-art, to see what one I would like to go with.
Out of these for the idea that I am going to go with is the Dragon Reserve. This is due to the fact that it is the environment that could most likely be put into a game, while still being a unique idea. I like the fact that there is a wide range of things that I would be able to do for this, like a number of different rooms, but also a lot of different outside areas.
