Under two weeks before my first Judgement day or whatever

Under two weeks left now  before my first major milestone where I have to have my character completed with texture, game design document fully fleshed out and a proposal for what kind's of sound I would like to work with for my upcoming 3D game project Outer Eden.

Firstly I would like to establish that I haven't done any wok on my character as I have overlooked dates and it has come to my attention that this Game Design should take high priority over other outstanding milestones due to its scale.

So if we look back at the list of Sections I presented last week in order to give you an idea of my current progress.


  1. Game Overview
  2. Story Setting and Character
  3. Gameplay and Mechanics
  4. Levels
  5. Interface
  6. Audio
  7. Artificial Intelligence
  8. Game Art
  9. Technical
  10. Management
  11.  Appendices
As you are able to see above I have come across a new feature....how exciting. I can now put lines through text. Anyway, so from the above you can clearly see which sections have been completed and which haven't and as I told you last week sections 1,2 and 3 were finished, so from that you can see that this week I have managed to further build on my GDD by successfully completing sections 4,5,6 and 7. Due to this being my objectives of last week I would say that I can see this week come to a positive end. 

For these sections I have not encountered any problems like I said the only set back has been the time constraint which has given me no choice but to focus all my attentions onto the GDD.

Fundamentally in order to complete these sections the following visuals had to be created

Menu screen designs with transitions between all menus.


HUD design




One of the level design's


At this point in my project I had some idea of how I wanted my game to play out the following video of Mass effect is just a small example of how I depicted my game at this point.

This is how I could imagine Outer Eden to be like but without the vehicle for the majority of the time but there is the option of utilizing vehicles for faster means of travel

Next week I hope to of achieved

  • Completed Game Design Document 
  • Meaning sections 8,9,10 and 11 must be finished
  • Character Art
  • Team management, etc
  • Character painting 
14th Decemeber is my first milestone which is in under 2 weeks where the following must be finalized 

  • Character Model finished 
  • Game Document Finished 
  • Sound Proposal
Oh yeah I almost forgot...the week prior to I mocked up a leveling up system design aswell as my radar design and here it is.
