Game Design Document

Story: 
The story of this game is the character was lost in an unknown island and his only way out is to find items to build his escape. These items consist of a boat parts. So the purpose is to find those parts to complete each levels.
Find items before the time runs out. The setting will set on a small island fill with trees, mountains, river, difficulties and hidden items/objects around the island.  After collecting all the items the player then pass to the next level. Each levels has a certain time for the player to collect the items.

Character:
The character will be third person. I much prefer to do it on third person more than first person player. I feel like the game play will be more enjoyable as this and personally i like to play third person character. The character costume will be just a plain white t-shirt fill with holes as the character has been lost for a certain time now and with blue shorts. The character will not have any shoes this will also make his movements slower as well but there are shoes on every levels that the character can find to increase the character's movement.

Environment/Level
The environment would be during the day time. The reason i choose day time is because during night time it would be very difficult for the player to find the items and will be already difficult during day time. As for levels, each level will have about 3-4 items to find within the given time. The duration will change depending on the levels.

Gameplay:
Example of gameplay: for the first level, the character will be placed in the middle of the island. The character will be surrounded by mountains terrain, river and grassland. Once  the character is on the map the time will automatically starting to countdown. As for first level i think the duration of the time would be around 3-5 minutes long to find the items. I also wanted to add shoes for the character to run faster as well as extend in time such as adding 30 seconds more. 

Art Description:
The game color will be mostly green as it is an island and unknown. The game will have mountains with flowing rivers, fill with forest and high grass. I also wanted to add sandy beaches and sea with blue sky.

Sound:
For sound, i want to add exciting music, sound effects as the character is searching for the boat's items. Few seconds before the time run out i also wanted to make the music more intense with the countdown clock example: 3, 2, 1...!
