Hearts of Iron IV

Hearts of Iron IV is a strategy game based between 1936 and 1948. 
It can be played historically and a historically. It is primarily a grand strategy and is part of Paradoxes series of grand strategy games based through out the ages. It is one of my favorite games  as you can drastically change the course of human history it could be from the Germans winning ww2 or the Soviet Union annexing the entirety of Europe or Allies declare war on the Soviet Union there is a variety of paly styles especially since the game is receiving constant DLC(downloadable content). You can master the ocean the sky or the ground with each play style being different and depending on the country easier e.g Britain has a large navy Soviet Union has a large army.

Modding is a large part of the game with massive game changing mods like Kaiserrecih or TNO(The New World Order) which change nations and how you play those nations for example Kaiserreich is based on a alternate history where the German empire won ww1 and sent both England and France into ideological changes. Where as TNO is based in alternate 1960s where Germany won ww2 and now Europe is under a iron curtain modders work to make these scenarios realistic with lots of lore on both scenarios.

(Picture of several cogs) (https://www.theknowledgeguru.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/learning-game-design-mechanics-1.png)  Hello im going to talk about some game mechanics that I think I will include in my game (Image of a door puzzle in Skyrim) (https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vWY7Nwuz5Nc/maxresdefault.jpg) Since im making a puzzle game I want to include some interesting puzzles. I am reminded of exploring ancient ruin is Skyrim with an artefact on this artefact there would be an inscription and eventually you would get to a door where you would have to turn several wheels of picture for them to match up and in turn open the door I was thinking of including something similar to this in my game. (Picture of the game temple run) (https://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/temple-run-2.jpg) I was also thinking about how when Indiana Jones takes the golden statue in the first movie the temple starts collapsing.  I was wondering if the game would maybe turn into a quick race back to

Introduction too me

Unity Logo (https://unity.com/logo-unity-web.png) Hello welcome too my blog this is a short introduction to me and what I am excited for in this module also since this module is about video games probably some of that. Well firstly I always wanted to create a video game it's always been a dream of mine but seemed very complex it's actually one of the main reasons im in the course so now that we are making one as an entire module gets me excited for the semester. I'm Not exactly sure what kind of game I would like to create it would have to have a good story since thats what I look for in a lot of video games its either for it to tell a story or being able to create one in the game. Recently I have been playing a lot of crusader king 2 which is a medieval grand strategy game however I don't know if I would call it that as there is a lot of luck involved since some wacky and unexpected things might happen for example slipping and dying with no heir too your dynasty causin

PROTOTYPE

(unity logo) (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Unity_Technologies_logo.svg/1200px-Unity_Technologies_logo.svg.png) I want to start off with some basic player movement so he can walk and jump, after this I will try and design some levels. I start of by watching several tutorials on player movement just so I refresh my memory on the topic. I wanted to make movement WASD and make the camera third or first person. I began to make this happen the movement didn’t take me a while to make but I was reminded of the game Grim Fandango and then I thought of making player movement based on clicking. I watched several tutorials on how to achieve this. The click movement gain did not take a while to make. I can see in the future pathing of the player being an issue. I want the camera of each section being static and being able to look over the entire level from a corner.   I also tried my hand at some level design but I scraped everything I made as I was not happy with w
