Research:

[A]treatment or proposal

Below we did three sections each idea. Research was first where we picked game and media which could show a gap in the market that we could fill. The second stage was creating a fleshing out the idea for the game. The last stage was comparison between the ideas and picking based on our research.

Reasoning:

The reason for what we created was based on the research below. For this we look as some game and decided that a game we could put on mobile and had simple controls would be in line with current trends. We also saw a popularity in space based media and decided that we could create a game with this in mind. The graphics in this were based on vectors and we wanted to make them simple to render so the most people could play the game. This is because our target audience are young and would have hand me down phones and computers. So as a result we made the game simple to play as well as simple graphicly.

e) relevant legal and/or
ethical issues

Ethical

Issue	Reasoning/ solving
A Man is the main character	This was done because of the title of the game is called get Tim home and this was done to have a pun in it as a result the main character is a guy and is not done due to any other reason.
Death is portrayed	This is reasonable as we will say that you lost not you died to avoid this issue

Legal

Issue	Reasoning/ solving
Sound track is not create by us	The music we picked in royalty free
Unity is not fully free software	We do not plan to publish the game, even if we did there would be no revenue source included, as there would not be adverts or purchasable
