After a hellish first project back at uni, which I have spoken about in my pervious posts. I can gladly say that this Game Design project should be less stressful as it is a group based project and should be good fun. However I am not assuming for one minute that there will be complications. Like they say, assumptions is the mother of all f***ups.
So what will I be doing over the next 15 weeks, you may ask ? well here is the Bournemouth University 2009 Game Design brief:
THE BRIEF

good use of both visual, aural and narrative effects.
Restrictions:

• Provide supporting material as evidence of your research and development in the
form of a Game Bible.

By the sounds of this, I will have my work cut out for me and the group. However I have yet to find out in my next lecture who will be in my group.
