Game Concepts

For the last past months group Kraken have been working on creating a concept for a shoot em up game based on the aesthetics they been given by the game institution. The aesthetics group Kraken were given was mysterious and ritualistic. Kraken named their game Demonology.

Demonology

What is Demonology?

The game is about becoming a god. The player walks around in catacombs and encounters priests and demons, by defeating the different levels they gain power and different abilities the player will need in order to be able to defeat the final boss.

Once the player has defeated all the different levels they will be ready to finally complete their goal, that is to defeat the final boss that is the god of a Sekt. The player is supposed to feel completely OP (overpowered) in the last level and will now defeat the boss and take over as the new god.

The reason why all the groups of the game education had been creating a game concept was so the other groups could choose a concept they wanted to make a complete game of it. And now it was time for group Kraken to choose one of the other groups concepts and create a complete game with it. Sadly because of the lack of communication the group only had seconds to choose which game they wanted to work with for the rest of the semester. Group Kraken had not really come to an agreement so the project manager just quickly picked one of the concepts. Group Kraken landed on Atherial.
