1. Unit 1: Assignment 3 Game Research

2. Game Research #1 Game title Zelda Publisher Nintendo System Nintendo ds Genre High fantasy action-adventure and puzzle solving game. Release date Early 2000s Graphical Style Cel-shaded 3. Game Research: Evaluation #1 Cel shaded is a graphical style. Thats mostly seen and used in cartoon/anime video games which is mostly age rated for younger children such as 7+. You will see this type of graphical style in the old version of Mario, games thats been promoted by films and companies for example Ben 10 and Bratz. Most cel-shaded anime cartoon use bright colours to make them stand out but does not show any photorealisms as you can clearly see how the graphical style is compared to all the others and shows no realistic features. 4. Game Research: Collage #1Characters This helped by showing the bright colours I would need to use for my characters. This showed me how to make mine look more like a cartoon/anime and look simple. Simple but effective colours. This helped me draw out the features cel-shaded use. This also helped me the way I should dress my character. This also showed how simple it has to be and not to exaggerated. 5. Game Research: Review #1Characters This will help me to design my character and make it simple like a cel-shaded graphical style will look like with the bright colours and cartoon style and by using steam punk to help my design. 6. Game Research #2 Game title Ben 10 Omniverse Publisher Playstation System Playstation 3 Genre Action/adventure game Release date 30 November 2012 Graphical Style Cel-shaded 7. Game Research: Evaluation #2 The colours they use are bright colours to make it stand out more then anything else. Ben 10 is a media franchise so many products goes out to selling the name under of Ben 10 and they mostly do this to promote it. 8. Game Research: Collage #2 Environment Here they keep it 3D but still giving it a cartoon feeling showing me to give it some originality. Here shows a bit of abstract but still giving the essence of cel-shaded graphical style. Heres the latest version of Ben 10 but it still shows the bright colours making it bold and stand out. Here shows I should still keep it simple for my environment. This helped me by showing me to give it extra additional features such as buildings and make sure it has a link to the genre. This showed me to make it bold but it dont have to be to perfect like photorealism. 9. Game Research: Review #2Environment This can help me for my environment by showing me how to design a well structured cel-shaded graphical art based game by showing me all the features my environment will need. 10. Game Research #3 Game title Mario Publisher Nintendo System Nintendo wii Genre platform video game Release date Early 2003s Graphical Style Cel-shaded. 11. Game Research: Evaluation #3 In cel shaded video games the main genres mostly commonly used in this type of graphical style is mostly, platforms, action- adventure, puzzle solving and high fantasy games. This is because with a cartoon/anime graphical art style you cant do much with the type of game genres its always best to keep it simple and colourful and this makes the player feel like its a real cartoon game. You can see how brightly the colours are to make it stand out and not to make it look boring to make it look more attractive. 12. Game Research: Collage #3Weapons Mostly Mario has to collect his weapons but this showed me that there can be different varied of choices. It shows it can be anything and it dont have to look as professinal. It can always be simple but effective. It dont have to be a weapon on you. It can be by another character you do to. It can be small and dont have to have to much details to an extent. This showed me it has to be cartoon looking as its a cel- shaded graphical style. 13. Game Research: Review #3 This can help me to design my weapons in a simple but effective way by giving it the more effects rather then detail as its just a cel-shaded graphical style.
