GAME DESIGN
High-concept: Go on the one-person pig patrol to ensure all the charging boars are fed, throw apples at the pigs so they do not run you down. Game overview: The game platform is flash based for web application. The target audience is teenager-plus with access to the web. This game is designed to hook its players by overfeeding ravenous boars apples that are freshly picked by an overhanging Tree. Game play mechanics: There'll be three or four apples that randomly appear above you on an apple tree limb. In the second level they will randomly appear in the buckets. You must pick (click with the mouse to pick up) an apple so you can throw it at the charging boars. If the bore is missed with the Apple, the pig will hit you and take away a life point. If you hit the board with the Apple, it will eat it turn around and walk away. Game progression: When all the pigs are fed from the first level you will progress to the second level. When all the pigs in the second level have been fed, you get to have your bacon (win scenario). If you are hit by a bores, more than three times you have to go to the hospital and lose the game. Game world and game modes: The first level is a grassy field with a tree hanging over your head. The second level is a patch of dirt with a farmhouse in the background. You have access to buckets of apples to pick from in the second level. Interface and screen descriptions: There is start/pause/quit buttons at the bottom of the screen. There is a health meter in your top right. There is a number counter of fed and unfed boars. This is a 2-D game with a boars get progressively larger as they come toward you. Back story: You work for a local farmer who raises pigs, he only pays you in bacon. Of course only after you have gone on patrol to feed the pigs. Game characters: The only character that will be seen are the boars. Their only functionality is to charge at you and/or eat apples that you throw at them.
