Design Documentation:
Game Title: SnaKing
Objective:
Collecting objects thus completing the inventory on each level and proceeding forward for the next level.
Game Mechanics:
1. Collecting objects to complete the inventory on each level.
2. Directing the snake with D-Boxx (directional box)
3. Right Click to change direction of th D-Boxx, subsequently, upon collision with the snake the former changes its direction.
4. Left Click to drop the D-Boxx.
5. D-Boxx adds length/weight to the snake.
6. Completing the inventory results in creation of a Bridge that takes u to the next level.
7. Bridge is a restriction by itself i.e. to cross any level the bridge has its own length/weight limit; this makes it a challenge for the player to restrict the number of D-Boxx's being used in each level. Thus, the user has to make sure that he uses the least number of D-Boxx's for collecting all objects on inventory.
8. A Time Keeper for creating anxiety.
9. If the snake happens to collide into the world boundary - drop the time at a faster rate and reverse the direction of snake i.e. head becomes tail and vice versa.
