Final Draft Proposal: First Draft

A Pawn’s Journey

            The main character of the game is a pawn named Cecil, who lives in the Kingdom of Saur; a happy kingdom that has never had a conflict once in its history.  One day, it seemed like any other day until disaster struck and turned the kingdom upside down.  An undercover clan that goes by the name of The Death Triad invades the kingdom and takes the king and most of the people of the kingdom hostage.  Cecil, who has many years of combat training, realizes that his home is in danger of The Death Triad and rises up to the challenge to save the kingdom from the depths of despair.  He must fight through many enemies along the way; solve mysterious puzzles that lead to information about the clan, and many other difficult tasks to restore order. 

            The game will take place in the village inside the forts of the kingdom and sometimes it will take place outside the kingdom as well.  The design of the game will have a different background depending on the area in the game you are located.  If you are in the main part of the castle it will have its own background, as will the village.  There will be various objects in the levels, including walls, ledges, and many other objects the player can interact with.  Many other items will be included throughout the game such as weapons and other materials.

            The arrow keys allow the gamer to move the pawn left, right, jump, or crouch.  The spacebar will be the combat weapon that will allow the character to perform in combat.  The number keys will switch between weapons you will collect in the course of the game.  Pressing the enter button will command the text that pops up in the game.
