Weekly Update
Hello and welcome back. This week our team began our ideation process in order to come up with a game pitch. We were tasked with creating a 1-page game pitch to entice and teach the reader about our concept. Through this process, the team has been able to come up with a game pitch that we have all collectively agreed on and will be working to develop.
Brainstorming
Our team took a divergent to convergent approach to brainstorming. We started with individually coming up with our own ideas and presented them to the group. After all ideas were presented the team extracted what they liked about each idea and began to converge. Through this process we were able to compromise and narrow down our ideas into one.
