Using the following format, we have been asked to create a question to help inform our inquiry for our Studio 2 projects.
1. I am making______________
2. Because I want to find out who/what/when/where/whether/why/how______________
3. In order to help my community of practice and field understand______________
How can a growing plant game be developed using Unity?
What kind of environment for the players to relax?
1. I am making a game about growing plants Pet Plant.
2. Because I want t find out...
who: Those who want to relax from their busy lives
what: a game about growing plants
when/where: they want to feel chill vibes of the natural atmosphere regardless of time and place.
whether:
Most people in the city don't have many chances to grow their own plants except for plants that are grown in pots.
why:
When I was in Korea, I had to take a packed subway for an hour every morning to go to work.
This was so stressful for me that I used to separate myself from the space by playing various healing games. It was very effective to relieve my stress. So I also want to make a game that people can healing without regard to time and space.
how:
Blender and Unity are used to make the game.
Now, I am making mini games to accumulate the technical skills and knowledge of Unity to make the game. It will explore how to rotate the island to see the plants in different directions and how to make it rain and how to make plants grow and I will make a prototype.
3. In order to help my community of practice and field understand the relaxing game.
Eventually, I want to develop this game to VR so that people can feel relaxed in their own space more effectively.
