The time Period and setting

 

The Time period and Setting

So now we had our genre figured out we had to pick a where and a when for the level we had a list of ideas which were a castle,Factory,Manor,Hospital,Prison,Derelict Buildings,School and a lab after a discussion we narrowed it down to either the Hospital or the School we and after another discussion we went for the school we believe that the what makes things really scary for a player is reliability if they could recognise themselves in that situation they get a lot more tense and example is derelict buildings if i was playing a horror game i wouldn't be able to relate because i have never really been in one so i wouldn't bee on edge but if i was playing a horror game that was set in a school everyone has been to a school so they would be able to relate and that's what gives a player that little shock and burst of adrenaline when something does happen to them. No for the era we decided to go for a more medieval look and we settled in the Tudor era so between the years if 1485-1603.
