Aim One
What do you hope to learn through this research?
I hope to learn how I can use the two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms in a single game space through my research and design process.
What do you hope to discover?
I hope to discover if I can bring a new artistic style to games that game developers and game designers can use in various ways.
What do you think will be revealed?
I hope I will reveal if it is possible to bring both dimensional forms in a single space without compromising one style.
How will this research impact other people?
My research will open up more significant style possibilities through the game design process if I am successful. Using 2D and 3D in a game without being restricted to a single-dimensional form would significantly impact the game design industry.
Aim Two
What do you hope to learn through this research?
I want to learn about what I can do in a game space using both 3D and 2D to create novel psychological game experiences. Creating new experiences is what I enjoy, and I want to learn what more I can create with the skills that I am trying to improve.
​
What do you hope to discover?
I hope to discover if there are limitations to my ideas and creativity and what I can do to work around them when creating new and different experiences for others. Psychological game experiences are a challenge to make, so I want to know if I can bring simple ideas and make something new.
What do you think will be revealed?
I want to reveal the process that is taken to create an environment that plays on a persons' idea of regular and familiarity and how it can be used as a game's design and mechanic.
How will this research impact other people?
Within games, there is a set idea of what is expected when being played. I want to create works and ideas that can alter a players perspective and open them up to a world of new game ideas and environments.
Aim Three
What do you hope to learn through this research?
Using Unity as my game creation software, I hope to learn how to utilise Unity to create a psychological game experience in 2d and 3d.
What do you hope to discover?
I hope to discover that with the current growth within the game design industry in New Zealand, I can bring new and exciting ideas to expand further what our industry can bring to players.
What do you think will be revealed?
Through my research, I want to reveal how game designers can fully utilise Unity to create seemingly infinite possibilities within a games space.
How will this research impact other people?
By showing and opening up Unity's potential possibilities, game designers can push further into the limitations that game design, specifically world design and artistic style, can pose.
