Week 6: Idea Finalization and Gold Spike

This week the Tuesday Tales team focused on finalizing our game idea while creating our app’s golden spike. After quarters, the team took the faculty’s feedback into consideration and tried to merge the ideas of using Kaiju with the social mechanics of the Caravan game. This led us to a new idea that was based around representing players’ relationships through Kaiju. When we pitched this to Legendary, they had some concerns about it limiting the game to require friends to play together.

 

The team pulled together for our gold spike to ensure that we can achieve the basics we will need for any experience we choose to make. This included map display, getting phone GPS coordinates, and receiving data from spatial. This gave us the chance to get a better idea of what and how quickly we can produce our experience. As a team, we were able to get the basic features implemented and working in the week.
