My game idea is involving a own mind creation which has not been produced by any other market or by film so its a game with its original intellectual property. Known as a IP and will not franchise any game or any Movie so there will be no copyright or royalties needed to pay the companies who own the Movie or game rights. I am going to make since it will be all thought out and made without a copy of any other character. With the terrain been the world and the music been made also by imagination there will be no franchise within the game.
the game genre will be a 3D fighting game but in the side view of the game and design of it will look similar to the example below but different characters , storyline and environments. http://www.go386.com/culture/images/tekken6-screens.jpg
my target audience for my game would be 15-25 as it will have violence,swearing but no blood or gore within the game. it will be approved as 15+ since the swearing will not be wanted to be told to young children. it will be online and tag team in some cases but usually one versus one. It will be possible for 2 player story mode as the story will have a more free terrain look and will be able to pick up health ammo for weapons and allot of other variety pick ups such as slow down enemies and armour for extra health reduction. The story itself is very linear and involves going from one mission to the next.

Its main similarity is games like dead or alive or Tekken which are both successful games within the game market however the charatacters and storyline are all different so it could be franchised by the fact it is the same gernre and same view of fighting but it is not the same as the other games.this is a brainstorm picture i created of the game itself.
The main game platform this game will be on is Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 as they are the most used and most played consoles within the age group 12-25 so it would appeal to them more directly than at inappropriate times where they are either asleep or in college or school/college/ university.
The idea of the game is unlocking every charatcer within the fighting game and unlocking more costumes for more entertainment and to unlock new places. the trophies/ achievements/ rewards will be unlocked in story mode single player, multiplayer and online play as it will give the viewer a better chance to unlock using a variety of challenges than just winning certain battles all over again. The menu will be scroll based as it looks very appealling to most fightin games as shown below.

As this picture is designed it shows a good appeal to the game in background showing a more appeal as the game is searched through and usually the background would have fighting and music in the menu to listen 2 as the gameplay continues and the waitin for the players command. If the player takes too long to move a trailer of the game which is within the game will appear showing the charatcers and some fighting. The game itself is unisex based which means it isn't just made to be played by only one gender as it will be able to play on both characters genders and will appeal to girls as well as boys. The story ending for every character will be different but their will be characters who intervene with each others stories and showing that the characters have a relationship between each one rather than them all fighting with no relationships within their friendship/ enemies. the concept art will be very displayed to help form a way of showing the games entertainment.This is a example of a concept art from tekken shown on http://gamersblock.net/gamefluid/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Tekken_6-PS3Artwork5976kisimoto_ras_scan02.jpg
As the picture shows its very appealing and gives the mood to thre artists a help with the game design and the charatcers look feel and emotions within the game. It can also help give the game more detail of the clothes they would wear and the way they would speak or react in the situations. Their speech will all be English so they will be able to understand each other. I hope the game itself doesn't lag while online and offline.

the speed will be varified depending on the charatcers level of difficulty and will be unable to fight others at a higher difficulty until you have reached that difficulty for fair fighting styles.

Online ranking: ranks to show how good your fighting skills are with a certain character compared to the others in the world and the actual online ranking of your skills, so you could be the best player using Steve but only rank 500 in the world.
Hardware
The main target platform intense fighting royale will be the playstation 3 however within time after the sales of it on the Playstation 3 it maybe convert to work on the Xbox 360 also and also the Nintendo Wii but with less graphics on the Nintendo Wii as its software is not as highly detailed. the fighting game will be used by the controllers but for the Wii it could be possible by motion or by the classic controller depending on the customers buy and possibly for the pc also depending on the sales on the Playstation 3 then Xbox 360.
Production Details
We have completed making some of the maps and the characters but it is not fully ready as the battle system is still not complete and the different mode types still need to be completed. the graphics are not as expected yet either so we are trying to get more income so that the graphics are in the top standards right now.
Development team
The development team involves a project manager who is familiarized with the team already with very qualified skills they worked for Sony once before as a project manager.
I have a 3d modeller who has been given a honours degree within 3d modelling so he is very familiar and very adept with 3d modelling he has worked in architecture before as a house modeller.
I have a concept artist who has worked in other games such as guilty gear also so his creative skills are very wanted.
The team also consists of a audio engineer who has worked within games like dead or alive and ninja gaiden so he is very qualified to work within the team.
There will be actors like Christopher Sabat to help with the voices of the characters as he is a very well known voice actor as he has played many amine characters.
We also have a 3d animator who had a previous job was working in Shrek Movies.
Budget
As we are not complete with the development of the game it is hard to give a full detail of the money that will be needed but on estimation it will be around 5 to 7million pounds
Schedule
As this is a big job and we are near 20% complete in it we will most likely be finished in march 2012 and be set on sale within July 2012
Competition
my game will be in competition with Tekken made by Namco and dead or alive which is made by Tecmo. Tekken is usually on both the Playstation and the Xbox and the dead or alive series is on one or the other which can give them both financial record of which console it sells better on. mine is planned to be sold on the Playstation as it has the better graphics of the 2. my key ingredient is to make the Online play a lot more entertaining than Tekken and dead or alive as theirs usually lagged. the new dead or alive is expected to be delivered in the march of 2011. and the new Tekken game is still showing no clue to when it will be released as the new game has recently been released within a year so the time for the next Tekken is unknown.
Game World
Intense Fighting Royale will have stunning 3D realistic view and non playable charatcers to buy items, fight or even team up with.
The player can choose what their characters look like and customise them.
The online play will be top notch and should not have any issues. If there are issues the staff will find them and fix them before the release to make sure the game has no major disadvantages.
In the game you can pick up random weapons from bricks to baseball bats to help defeat the enemies in single player, multiplayer or story mode.
Within the game you can drive around and conquer the streets and eventually the world with your fighting characters and the team you've made.
Back story
Steve was a really nice guy with his friend John but then one day his good friend Theodor was driving carelessly with his friend one day and ran over John and just laughed. this made Steve very angry so he went to find Theodor as Theodor didn't even notice what he did as he was completely mind lost. Steve is now trying to earn money in fighting tournaments to help pay the hospital bill for John and in doing so he helps train himself better and finding ways to get closer to Theodor to make him pay.
Objective
You are Steve a average fighter who is aiming to get money for Johns hospital bill but finds out his job is harder than it looks where he meets a lot of friends and enemies within the tournament and meets the secret as why Theodor ran him over on purpose unlocking ancient pasts and meeting friends along the way.
Characters
Steve Philip Johnson.(drawing not very accurate to how Steve will look)the all rounder and main character to the game. he has a easy to use street fighting style which he likes using.
Steve joined intense fighting royale after John was ran over by his old friend Theodor. Now with payments to be made he is entering the intense fighting royale to pay for Johns bills and to find out what happened to his friend Theodor.
Theodor Patrick Davids (Picture not drawn as accurate as theodor will look)theodor is the main rival to steve in the game he is a very cheerful joker character. he lost his sanity for the loss of his granddad in a cruel way and ant to find the killer. with his sanity gone and steve angry with what he did to john theodor must go alone to find his real killer. His fighting style is a serious yet confusing style known as "what he wants best" which involves other type of fighting style moves but with a twist of his own way of using them as he could use a wrestling power slam into a judo kick which means he has very complicated combos but with good results if they are successfull.
Gamma-598
This oddly named creature is the main boss in intense fighting royal. He is a superhuman who was developed by the research lab. He was designed to be a army soldier to help defend the country against wars but he had a mix up of chemicals when he was been produced and now he has a killer instinct to anyone who tries to get in his way. He brainwashed Theodor in the story and has been mind controlling him ever since. He is created within the american science museum and is sometimes seen throughout the story.
The other characters within the game are still under production and do not have fully developed pictures as of the production details since the maps are still been made as well.
Story progression
The way the game works in story is the first few missions involve tutorials to help understand how you fight in the game. This will involve fighting a training dummy or a actual character depending on the moves. when in story mode after the training missions you enter small tournaments in the game at the local areas and eventually get invited to go to bigger tournaments. it also involves fighting outside the tournaments for extra cash and for good karma by saving people or helping them. eventually paying for Johns bills and then going into bigger tournaments and in the later missions you start finding the main rival Theodor and the back story to why he ran over John in the car without a care.
Whilst in the story mode it gets to the point at a certain time where some mutants appear and try to kill you so Theodor can live and control the world even though he is been brainwashed by a super human named Gamma-598. Your role in the story is to find the Gamma-598 and to defeat him once and for all.
while in story mode you can buy items for healing when on the streets and weapons and clothes for the look or the bonuses however the bonus increase is only in story mode so the style of the character will have to suit your style. in story mode at some point later in the mission there will be a lot harder enemies and more difficult tasks but the rewards will be much better rewards such as hidden costumes and money. The money can be used in the game for healing items if needed, costumes for the characters, weapons for the characters to use and finally unlocking secret tournaments which can give really good rewards and costumes for the character. even when the story is finished all the way to the end you can always go back to the story and compete in tournaments and tasks you have not completed and improve the reward from previous missions.
