1.0 Vision Comparison

When I first thought of Dimension Apocalypse I was still unsure how it was going to go, I had ideas of what I wanted, and how I wanted them, but no real plan for the why and the driving purpose of the game. To be honest all through development I still have no idea what the purpose or the driving force behind the game should be. I love horror games and the suspense of surviving them and I feel such a big scope is hard to achieve with what was my current knowledge and the time I have / had available to me. I learned so much not just about Unity but C#. I did want 4 dimension (levels) but I ran out of time and I struggled to find really cool free pixel art that suited the aesthetic of the game.

2.0 Feedback Summary:

Some of the major feedback I received during the game testing session in week 12 was I had no driving force for the game.  A lot suggested waves and more bosses but with the strict time I had, current real life obligations it was well beyond the scope of what I could complete!
