At the beginning of my previous blog, I mentioned that our team of 5 had decreased to a team of 3, but as of this week, we are back to being a 5. We originally had distributed the roles to fit three members, but we had to go back to the drawing board to discuss who was going to do what. In the end, I ended up being assigned UI designer, sound designer, and storyboarder and I will also be doing parts of the documentation (all members will take part in the documentation). On top of that, we made a discord server so we can keep in frequent contact throughout the project.
With the addition of new members, we discussed our previous concepts and ideas, going with the stealth and sneak assassin game in the end. We confirmed our idea and started to go into depth with the story, creating a backstory for our main character, naming him Markus Forrester, (I named the majority of the characters after my family members and the protagonist and I share a surname which is a little funny) he comes from a wealthy family and his father (Daimen Forrester) is a politician. However, both his parents died in a fire. (His mother is named Lily Forrester). Markus' assassination target is at the masquerade ball and had some involvement in his parent's death, but Markus is unaware of that until a while later. Another character we've created is Markus' uncle: Robin Forrester, a skilled assassin. He takes in Markus when his parents die and trains him to be an assassin.
However, we definitely need to refine and extend our ideas and take "the hero's journey" into account before finalising anything.
That's all we've come up with for now!
Thanks for reading!
