Title: Children's Let's Cook Game
Post by: Slasher on Fri 16/10/2015 07:06:14
Hi,

*** POSITIONS FILLED

Last year i was thinking of making a children's 'Let's Cook' game.

This is the basic:

they would enter their name and then choose an item to cook, like a pizza or burger.

they would then be taken to their kitchen and shown a list of ingredients to find in the kitchen.

Koala, your cook guide helps you make the dish. Koala comments throughout the game.

As they find the correct ingredients the item gets a strikethrough.

The also get instructions on how to put the dish together.

when it is ready a large picture of what they have cooked is shown.

There will also be 'dangers to avoid' like a boiling kettle etc.

This will be a great interaction for the child who will be thrown into the delicious world of cooking.

This is quite a huge 'take on' and therefore i am looking for people to help bring it together.

Positions:
* 3D models of a kitchen in girl and boy variants.
* Objects like kettle, tins, packets etc etc

* Additional scripters
* Musician for Music/Sound
* Other...

Res 1024 x 768

All offers of help with this children's game is greatly appreciated,

Thank you

A game targeted to kids?
A game about cooking, targeted to kids?
An AGS game about cooking, targeted to kids?

I'M IN (laugh)
I can do all the graphics (backgrounds, sprites, GUIS...)

I just think you may wanna revise the resolution ;)

Goodday  AnasAbdin,

thank you for your offer of help.

i see you had a kitchen in Dexter (nod)

similar would be good (slightly larger perhaps for children with appropriate colour schemes)

QuoteI just think you may wanna revise the resolution
maybe up it to 1024 res?

i'll be in touch after i release Beyond Horizon which will hopefully be next week ;)

cheers

slasher

Well I think the resolution would depend on the art style. Dexter is pixel that's why I used a lower res. A much higher resolution would be appropriate for cartoonish style.

we'll have to think this thoroughly 8-)

Maybe not separating by gender would be cool. There's no need for that IMHO

I totally agree. I was even thinking to avoid using baby blue or pink colors for the kitchen.

Ok,

perhaps they can choose between a man / woman helper chef?

Yes, give them the choice. Much better than choosing for them. (nod)

I'm making a maths-based educational game with AGS of my own, and making Edu games is actually something I've always wanted to do from long before I had kids of my own.  So count me in - just give me a shout if there's anything you think I can help with! ;-D  (I guess that'll go under "other"...)
