[Wheel of Life]

GAME PITCH

• Audience This game will be for middle and high school students.
• Game Play The player will see a colorful wheel with different choices for different basic aspects of living a socially responsible life (Education, housing, marraige, children, insurance/healthe costs, car, recreation, service, etc). Players will "spin" the wheels to find out how different choices can affect how they live. There are no 'wrong' choices, however, will affect each subsequent screen. The goal of the game is to increase students' knowledge of how there education and other choices will affect their standard of living.
• Fun Factor Player doesn't know what place they will land on the wheels.(What makes your game fun for the player?)
• Smart Factor How education will affect their life styles as adults(What does your game teach? What can someone learn by playing it?)
• Style Factor There will be various types of wheels (ferris wheels, prize wheels, caged wheels, dart wheels,etc) which will be animated in some cases (man throwing at prize wheel, riding on ferris wheel, running in hamster wheel for example) Sound effects from various sources.(What kind of graphic/animation style will you use? What kind of sounds?)
• Originality Factor (What makes your game special and unique? Why will it sell?)
• Team Introduction
