In class game excercise

On Wednesday night the class all passes around pieces of paper with words we had written on the paper related to 'tropical death'.

My four words that I had to work with were;

-Pineapple farm (place)

-Pelican (object)

-Orbiting (Verb)

-Randomly exploding (way to die)

We all took our words and brainstormed about how to make interesting games out of those words.

My first idea I got from this was Platforms orbiting something and I person jumping from platform to platform avoiding the exploding pineapples being shot at them from the pineapple farm, also avoiding the swooping pelicans.

My second idea was pineapple farm planets with the pineapples orbiting around the farms. The player is riding a pelican and collecting pineapples to shoot at the other pelicans. The other pelican's are bouncing around in the screen. The player needs to defend themselves.

My third idea had a pineapple farm with orbs floating over the pineapples making them orbit the globs when they were ripe. The player is a person near the farm with a pineapple cannon waiting to fire at the swooping pelicans trying to steal the pineapples.

I went with my second idea, the pelicans in space.
