Week 12 – Salty Nuggets Studio

5 mechanics of our game would be:

Shooting humans: Will be related to physics and economy, the player will use weapons to kill enemies
Opening doors: Related to progression, the player will have to find the correct lever to unlock the door
Side stepping and jumping: Related to physics, the player will control every movement of his character to progress into the game world.
Jumping / moving around to hit weak spots of enemies: Related to physics and tactics, the player will use a previous mechanic plus the aiming mechanic to destroy special enemies / boss
Managing resources (Ammo, Health, armour): Everything related to economy. The player will have some weapons with limited ammunition, a certain amount of health etc.

We believe these mechanics are giving a simple but broad range of interaction into the game. It allows the player to control the story and plays the way he wants.

Our target audience are players who want to feel the adventure, be the hero of the story. Basically, taking the story and reworking it to progress with their own style.

Enemies (except bosses) do not need to be killed to progress and there is no weapon (except the first pistols) that are compulsory. Everything just add up to the base experience. The player just chooses how he wants to use them.
